Conditional Formatting Slicer

Hi All,

 

I am having an issue with slicer affecting my conditional formatting. I have a tracking table that that shows the status of the data collection, (inventoried, copied and ready for processing). For each field i created a new field to display the boolean values as unicode (UNICHAR ( 10060 ), UNICHAR ( 10004 )) and then created another new field where i converted the values from Boolean to Numeric. I am using the unicode fields for the conditional formatting based on the numeric field value (0,1).Capture.JPG

This part works fine, but where i am running into issues is when i use slicer to filter by date the conditional formatting stops working. If a select a date, it filters everything properly but the conditional formatting does not work.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Hi @StephenH ,

If I understand your scenario correctly that you said that the slicer will stop the conditional formatting?

If it is, I cannot reporduce your scenario by my test in the latest version of Power BI Desktop.

Please check if you have installed the latest version of Power BI Desktop 2.68.5432.841.

If you still need help, please share a dummy pbix file which can reproduce the scenario, so that we can help further investigate on it? You can upload it to OneDrive and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading.

Best Regards,

Cherry

Cherry, 

 

Thanks for the response, I updated Power BI and then deleted the conditional formatting. I redid the conditional formatting to use Format By Rules which fixed the problem.  I appreciate your help on this issue!
