@colourfullife Oh, wait, syntax error, missing )

Measure = 
  VAR __Date = MAX('Table'[Date])
RETURN
  IF(WEEKNUM(__Date) = WEEKNUM(TODAY()) && YEAR(__Date) = YEAR(TODAY()),1,BLANK())

@colourfullife I don't see where you can set the color of a line based on a formula yet. So like:

Measure = IF(WEEKNUM(MAX('Table'[Date]))=WEEKNUM(TODAY()),1,BLANK())

Hi @Greg_Deckler 

 

X axis in the graph, there are Weeks,

 

2020-21, 2020-22, 2020-23, 2020-24 . . . . . 

 

i want to colour 2020-38.

 

@colourfullife Right, still no conditional formatting for that. You could add a new line that only displays on the current week, so that it shows as a dot and set it to a value of 1 perhaps. Then that would indicate current week.

@Greg_Deckler, That's a good idea!

@colourfullife Thinking:

Measure = IF(WEEKNUM(MAX('Table'[Date]))=WEEKNUM(TODAY()),1,BLANK())

@colourfullife Hah!, didn't think about that! OK, that's easy to fix:

Measure = 
  VAR __Date = MAX('Table'[Date])
RETURN
  IF(WEEKNUM(__Date) = WEEKNUM(TODAY() && YEAR(__Date) = YEAR(TODAY()),1,BLANK())

@Greg_Deckler 

 

I used Week but this made up based on date like below

week.PNG

@colourfullife I think it was a syntax error on my part, corrected below.

Measure = 
  VAR __Date = MAX('Table'[Date])
RETURN
  IF(WEEKNUM(__Date) = WEEKNUM(TODAY()) && YEAR(__Date) = YEAR(TODAY()),1,BLANK())

@Greg_Deckler  got it!

but can it become a line??

@colourfullife Unfortunately no, haven't found a way to draw vertical lines on line charts yet. The Analytics pane only allows horizontal lines. Unless...you want to create a bunch of those measures, each with a different value that is returned, so think 10 of those measures that return values from 1 to 10 each, then they would show up stacked vertically on the graph. Maybe create one for every 2000?  😞
