Color the blank values for same rows appearing in the Matrix visual?

I want to add a specific color to all the blank values that come in my matrix table, now I am using 3 levels of hierarchy and I want to add conditional colors on all those blank values, a sample is given below where I need to add colors only to those values that are appearing as blank:

I want to make the background color for blank values the same as that of previous cells (ie gray) for the same specific rows. But I am not able to achieve it.

Can someone help with it? Thanks in Advance!!

@freakinaditya , if the values are blank, power bi do not take that in conditional formatting even in a color measure using is blank

Add +0 to measure and then use conditional formatting How to do conditional formatting by measure and apply it on pie?: https://youtu.be/RqBb5eBf_I4

Hi @freakinaditya ,

 

You could select the format tab and set the background color under conditional formating.

@amitchandak There is a user requirement so I can't add +0 to show values.  All is that they wanted blank values only and background color of blanks values same as that of the background color of values, to maintain the consistency.

@freakinaditya , do one thing, create a measure with +0 and use that in conditional formatting, not in the display (using field value option) , see if that can work

Can't add +0 as all values are in the text format.
