Conditional Formatting of Individual Column Headers on a Matrix

Is it possible to format the Column Headers on a Matrix - with each header name a different color?

I know there is no conditional formatting options avilable - can it be done with DAX?

Hi @jamesc926 ,

 

There's no way to achieve this, because DAX also needs to be all over conditional formatting color changes. It can only be done by using other options, such as grid, formatting, to emphasize the different column headings as much as possible.

 

Hope it helps!

Hello,

You can format your visual in the Visualizations pane. For columns specifically, go to the "Specific Column" section, and choose the column you want to customize. Make sure you select "Apply to header" only if you just want the header to change.
