Coloring bin of column chart based on number range

Hi there,

 

I have created bins and displaying into the column chart visual as shown in the picture.

Each bar/bin represents the 15 min interval. Now I want to set up the color of the bin in such a way that bins that show 0 to 30 mins bin should be in orange color and the remaining bin should be in red color. I know I can change the color from the data colors option. Is there any dynamic way of doing that?

@Dunner2020 add a measure for the color and then use it in conditional formatting:

 

Color = 
VAR __bin = MAX ( Table[Id (bins)] )
RETURN

IF ( __bin >= 0 && __bin < 30, "Orange", "Red" )

 

to set conditional formatting, go to format pane and click fx

and then select field value and select color measure

and this will do it.
