I'm new to Power BI and am having trouble using conditional formatting on a table visualization. I would like something like the followng:
Month | Budget | Spend |
Jan | 1000 | 950 |
Feb | 1000 | 1500 |
Mar | 1000 | 975 |
Basically, if the value of Spend exceeds the Budget amount, the text should be displayed in red. The existing Conditional Formatting feature allows you to format text based on a value specified at design time. I would like to compare to another field in the data set. This is trivial in Excel. Is this supported in Power BI?
TIA

I don't think any of the base visuals, or those in the Gallery have that option just yet. Suggest it as an idea and I'll vote for it! 🙂
