Hi,
I'm trying to conditionally format the background colour of a cell in a matrix, based on another measue (this is a custom measure used to calculate an individual player's maximum score in a test).
However, when trying to format based on 'Field Value', the dropdown box for 'What field should we base this on?' is outlined red, and it doesn't let me select anything from the dropdown.
Any ideas? Is there a setting I don't have switched on?
Thanks

Hi @KMichael99 ,
Based on the information you provided, I have created an example which I hope will be helpful:
1.Rankx the score
ranking =
RANKX ( ALL ( 'Table' ), CALCULATE ( MAX ( 'Table'[score] ) ),, DESC )
2.Create a measure
color =
IF ( [ranking] = 1, "red", BLANK () )
3.Applying color to score
