Hi again,
I am putting together a matrix visual that looks like this:
On the column for 'Total Hiring Rate', the user has requested that this field has conditional formatting applied based on the row's value vs. the column total. I've seen solutions on this forum where it's suggested to create a measure for conditional formatting based on ALLSELECTED(Row Dimension), however this visual is set up as a personalized visual, where the row dimension will change based on the users' preferences.
How can I apply conditional formatting to this column based on that row's difference from the grand total?

Hi @garynorcrossmmc,
You can calculate the difference between rows and grand total with a measure.
And then you can apply conditional formatting with the measure.

@garynorcrossmmc You can get the grand total by using something like a CALCULATE([Measure],ALL('Table')) or SUMX(ALL('Table'),[Column]). You could then do a ratio between the current value and this value for your conditional formatting.
