Color formatting in Shaped Map in power bi

Hi,

I have an requirement is as follows., I have an EstimatedCurrentTax values, and need to show the color for the states in shaped based on the below conidiations. case-1) If the EstimatedCurrentTax value is 0, then state should display as Grey color case-2) If the EstimatedCurrentTax value is lessa than 0, then it shoudl display as green color with 3 different green shades color. case-3) If the EstimatedCurrentTax value is greater than 0 then it should display as red color with 3 different red shades color. Can anyone help me on achieving this usin gShaped map in Power BI?
 
Here's a simplified explanation of my requirement for displaying state colors on a Shape Map in Power BI based on EstimatedCurrentTax values:

I want to color states on a map according to their EstimatedCurrentTax values with the following rules:

  1. Grey Color for Zero Value: If a state's EstimatedCurrentTax is exactly 0, color the state grey.
  2. Green Shades for Negative Values: If a state's EstimatedCurrentTax is less than 0, color it with one of three shades of green. The specific shade of green depends on how negative the value is.
  3. Red Shades for Positive Values: If a state's EstimatedCurrentTax is more than 0, color it with one of three shades of red. The shade of red will vary based on the positive value's size.

I am looking for guidance on how to apply these color rules to a Shape Map in Power BI.


Regards,
Pavan Kumar
