Conditional Formatting using slicer values

Hi All,

 

Let's say I have the following data in a table visual:

 

Month Reported

January

January

December

November

November

November

October

 

And I have a slicer: Reporting Month and the user selected "January". How do I format my table to highlight the rows that is equal to what is selected in the slicer? e.g. January.

 

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,

Based on my test, you could refer to below steps:

Sample data:

1.PNG

Create a new table:

New = VALUES(Table1[Month Reported])

1.PNG

Use this column as slicer.

Create a new measure:

Measure = IF(MAX('Table1'[Month Reported])=SELECTEDVALUE(New[Month Reported]),"#FD625E")

Set conditional formatting:

Now you could get the result:

You could also download the pbix file to have a view.

Hi @v-danhe-msft,

 

Thank you so much for your reply. I've resolved this before your reply but I used a similar approach as yours.

 

Appreciate it!

Hi Kim_Chan,

 

Good Idea. But this is not possible in Power BI when you select value in slicer and it should highlight it in the table visual.

 

You can post this in Power BI Ideas and Microsoft will consider this and Implement this feature in the later version of Power BI.
