Color Saturation in Date Hierarchy

I have a clustered column chart with a date hierarchy as the x axis.  I want to be able to have color saturation based on the sum of a column.  This works in the first level of the hierarchy and if I...

    I'm using the November update.  I turned on then off drill down in the right top coner of the visualization and it works now.  I'm not sure why.

Hmm, in my test for this, I did not see this issue. I am on the November version of Power BI Desktop. I was able to see color saturation at all levels. Check that you are on the latest build and if not, update and see if you still have the problem.

      leahschneider Greg_Deckler,

      So I'm able to duplicate the problem on the January 2017 edition of Power BI so I'm wondering if this really is "fixed". I have a hierarchy and a color saturation setup on a simple bar chart. On the top level, the color saturation is there. When I click on the Drill Mode arrow (upper, right-hand side of the viz) and then click on a bar, I descend into the hierarchy and the color changes to the default blue/green. 

       

      Now I can click on the double arrows (on the left-hand side of the viz) and the color saturation stays in place all throughout the hierarchy. It seems as though the color saturation only disappears as I click through and descending the hierarchy. 

       

      Any thoughts?


      Thanks,

      Jonathan
