Boolean visual? Big tick or Green Light?

Probably a ridiculously simple answer - but i'm wondering if there is any kind of visual i can use to show something like a big green tick if a target is reached and a cross if not, or something similar with RAG ratings?

I think i'm fine on the actual calculation, but finding some kind of icon or visual to show this really simply is proving difficult.

Thanks 🙂

Hi @GlassShark1 ,

 

I have tried using a KPI visual available in Power BI:

This visual gives you ability to display an indicator based on target value like following:

You can sow GREEN tick mark and RED exclamatory if the value is above or below your target (national average in the screesshot) value.

 

Thanks,

Hi @GlassShark1 ,

 

What visual do you want to use?

You can also add icon in table visual or matrix visual.

Brilliant - thanks

Is there any trick to not having the target smushed up too closely to the indicator value? On mine it's right underneath without as much space as you seem to have above
