Hi,
can anyone assist in creating a measure or calculated column I can use to make a conditional formatting dynamic legend slicer along with steps to use measure as a slicer? Or if there is another way to create a dynamic legend, please share. See attached.
I had to create a measure using a dax to calculate number of 'Yes' and 'No' so the percents in each row would highlight by correctly according to my range values.
Percent and color code values: Red '#FF0D0D' (0-85%) Yellow '#FFFB0D' (85-90%) Green '#12EA2B'(91-100%).
The conditional formatting rule is based on the percent of YES measure.
See DAX Measure below that was used to calculate percent of 'Yes' & 'No' in response column. Now I need to make a legend to reflect conditional formatting colors, preferably dynamic if possible.
DAX Measure
Hi @erikoos ,
Please try to create a measure with below dax formula:
Measure =
VAR _a = [Percent of Respondent ID for Yes]
VAR _result =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
_a < 0.85, "red",
_a >= 0.85
&& _a <= 0.9, "yellow",
_a >= 0.91
&& _a <= 1, "green"
)
RETURN
_result

Hi, thank you for creating measure! How can I use this measure as a legend slicer for the conditional formatting colors?
