Hi All,
I have a matrix table with several columns and rows. The values are dynamic based on the code below as I had to apply different formats in the same table.
How do I apply conditional formatting when I have a single measure? For example, I would like to have Green Background with white font if Total Open $ is greater than Total Pipeline.
Thanks
@mcpato , Based on what I got
Have a measure using the meausres
if([Total Open $] > [Total Pipeline], "Green", "red")
Same way create for font, use blank(), if you want default color
USe the above measures in conditional formatting using the field value option
You can create a complex measure using a switch

Hi amitchandak,
Thanks for your help I was trying to replicate that but it seems the conditional formatting is highlighting the whole column. I have some filters applied to that table but it seems is not filtering by rows.
This is my field value I'm using for conditional formatting.
And I re defined the Switch Total Open $ measure:
Not sure why is not working, my guess is that the switch total open $ measure (needed for the different formats for the different columns) is causing the issue.
Hope you can help me!
