    Hi Rob

     

    In Tableau we can show the color difference bec we have separate color Mark,

     

    In power BI also availble its called "Color Saturation"

    but it quite different here we cant use the dimension , here we can only use the measure value , its one drawback in power BI, I hope from upcoming update they change ...

     

    am sure now there is no option...

Thank you for the reply Eno1978 but that has had no effect whatsoever. 

I have postcodes mapped and each postcode can only sit in 1 category. However when i drop this into the colour saturation it shows 'count of ' and i don't understand why.

I just noticed, you can try the field in "Legend" as well. That should work.
