Applying Color to the Closest Value

kivanct_0-1671622309767.png
Hi everyone, I would like to share my issue. I would be grateful if you could help me to solve it. 

These are the production lines in the first column like 1924-1925 etc. 

My aim is "7". 
For example , I would like to see the value closest to 7 colored by green but must be less then 7. 

RULE:
IF there is a value less than 7 in the row, make green the value closest to 7.
IF all the values in the row greater than seven, then make smallest value green.

Row 1924 = 6,75 -green
Row 1925 = there is not less value than 7, so it should select 7.5- green ( Least value)
Row 1926 = there is not less value than 7, so it should select 12,17 - green ( Least value)
Row 1927= 1,77 - green

I would like to apply the same rule for each row. 

Could you help me to create the formula ?

Regards

Hi @kivanct ,

 

Here's my solution.

1.Create a measure to return the colest values.

Closet Value = 
var _1=SUM('Table'[14 Saat])
var _2=SUM('Table'[17.25 Saat])
var _3=SUM('Table'[20.5 Saat])
var _A1=ABS(SUM('Table'[14 Saat])-7)
var _A2=ABS(SUM('Table'[17.25 Saat])-7)
var _A3=ABS(SUM('Table'[20.5 Saat])-7)
return IF(_A1>=_A2,IF(_A2>=_A3,_3,_2),_1)

2.Create three measures to return color results for different columns.

14Color = IF(SUM('Table'[14 Saat])=[Closet Value],"Green")
17.25Color = IF(SUM('Table'[17.25 Saat])=[Closet Value],"Green")
20.5Color = IF(SUM('Table'[20.5 Saat])=[Closet Value],"Green")

 

3.Use 'Conditional formatting' for each of three columns.

Thanks a lot. It worked ! But I just need a small adjustment.

For example; 

In row 1929, closest value shown as 7.39 but it should take "6" because 7,39 is greater than 7. 
And 7.39 colored by green but 6 should be colored. 

How can i adjust that ?
