Conditional Formatting with Switch and Selected Measure or Value

Hello,

 

I have a ton of measures in cards and want to color code them. The color coding rule is always the same. Problem is, how can I apply it to all of my different measures.

 

Since it would be ridiculous to manually define each color condition I am looking for way to do that all at once. 

 

I was super excited to use the selected measure function of dax...but it wasn't working. Can anyone help?

 

 

Sample Color Coding Background = 
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
        SELECTEDMEASURE() < 0.8, "#E34858",
        SELECTEDMEASURE() < 0.95, "#EB6F24",
        SELECTEDMEASURE() > 0.95, "#2EA675"
)

 

 

And I cant use Tabular Editor since it is blocked from our IT.

Did you ever find an answer to this? I'm trying to do the same via Tabular Editor using SELECTEDMEASURE() but it does nothing for the font colour.

@amitchandak : do you know if there is a free version? Or do you have any experience on that regarding licensing. Would only the person that creates the report need a tabular license or anyone who views a report?

@raymondpocher , as far as I know, you have to create it from tabular editor only.

Appreciate your logic. Good Idea to reduce measures.

Thanks but seriously? 😄
