Conditional Formatting not behaving as expected
- 6 years ago
Hi Anonymous ,
I create a simple sample that you could have a try. And you can use any of the values listed in the CSS color spec at https://www.w3.org/TR/css-color-3/ to color your visuals. In my sample, I use text to color it. Please view the sample below.
Conditional formatting = SWITCH ( TRUE (), 'Table'[%] <= 0.05, "Red", 'Table'[%] <= 0.1, "Yellow", "Green" )Best Regards,

Hi @rgodavarthy ,
It is by design. The percentage is calculated based on Range.
Percentage(in conditional formatting)
You could try to create DAX formulas to apply that color to the background of font color of a table or matrix visual. For more details, you could try my sample.

Thank you v-xuding-msft this is really helpful!
I am struggling as to how to implement it though as I am not measuring against a goal but a % of the Row total in a Matrix so the only field I have is Revenue against millions of rows.
The Matrix looks something like this
| Line of Business | Windows | Doors | Flooring | Total | ||||
| Country | Rev | % | Rev | % | Rev | % | Rev | % |
| UK | 25.1 | 51% | 11.4 | 23% | 13 | 26% | 49.5 | 100% |
| France | 10.6 | 9% | 100.2 | 82% | 11 | 9% | 121.8 | 100% |
| Germany | 30.1 | 44% | 18.9 | 28% | 19.5 | 28% | 68.5 | 100% |
| Total | 65.8 | 27% | 130.5 | 54% | 43.5 | 18% | 239.8 | 100% |
There are sublevels below those in the matrix also going down at least 4 or more levels.
Thanks again for the help!
