Hello Everyone,
I need a complex conditional formatting in my matrix visual. I hope you can help me, thank you.
| Class | Max | 1-May | 1-Jun | 1-Jul | 1-Aug | 1-Sep |
| A | 20 | 15 | 18 | 22 | 14 | 19 |
| B | 25 | 22 | 30 | 28 | 25 | 19 |
| C | 30 | 31 | 28 | 19 | 25 | 35 |
This is my matrix with Class and Max in Rows, Date in Column and number of participants in the Values.
Each class has a maximum capacity. If the number of participants in more than the Max for each Class, the font colour shd be in RED. How can I achieve this?
Thank you for your kind help.

You can achive your required output using the color measure like below and using in conjunction with conditional formatting of measures.
I attach an example pbix file.
