Conditional Formatting based on Filter Values

Hello Members,

 

We are very new to Power BI and we received a unique requirement from our Management.

I have a Clustered Column Chart which displays summarized value based on Filter. We have 3 Filter Values and our management wants to see different colors whn one of the value is selected.

 

Filter Value                 Clustered Coumn Chart

    E                                           Green

    W                                          Blue

    G                                           Grey

Is this conditional formatting, or do you just want to colour each of these items "E, W, G" the colour you mention?  Assuming the latter, put the 3 letters on the legend in the chart, go into the formatting options for the chart and change the data colours

I will not give you bad advice, even if you unknowingly ask for it.

Yeah, because we are very new to Power BI and this small thing was not hitting us from anywhere.
