Is it possible to use conditional formatting but base the format on a selection of a filter?
I have a measure that I want to display as red when over the value of 120. However, this 120 is monthly. So when a month is picked I want it to be red up to the value of 120, when no month is selected, I want it to be red if its over 1440 as this is 120x12.
Is this possible?
@Anonymous you can create measure to return the color and then use that in conditional formatting
KPI Color = VAR __value = SUM( Table[Amount] ) VAR __limit = IF( HASONEVALUE( Table[Month] ), 120, 1440 ) RETURN IF( __value > __limit, "RED" )
Now use this measure in conditional formatting. Change above measure as per you data set
