Card border conditional formatting

I see a lot of posts about changing the background and text color based on a condition but can the border be changed on a Card visual based on a condition?

Hi @gilmore_staci ,

 

Based on your description, I have created a simple sample:

vjianbolimsft_0-1679364116097.png

Average Measure = AVERAGE('Table'[Value])

Border Color = IF([Average Measure]>=90&&[Average Measure]<=100,"Green","Red")

Please try:

Format style-> Field value ->What field should we based on?-> [Border Color]

Final output:

vjianbolimsft_2-1679364342913.png

@v-jianboli-msft 

I am coloring an average so its not a column.  I created the measure and tried to add it to the format but the field doesn't stay in the box, it blanks our so I'm guessing because its a measure and not a column.

I did try using the fx button and use a rule for the average field but its not working either.  

I have >= 0 and < 89  - red

> 90 and < 100 - green

But its coloring a 93% average red, should be green

 

Any ideas?

Hi @gilmore_staci ,

 

You can change the card border here:

Card border conditional formattinng just like normal conditional formatting, here is a simple example:

border color = IF(SUM('Table'[Column1])<=1,"Red","Green")
