Hello,
Yesterday I was working on a line chart and applied a conditional formatting to make the markers change to red once the 'total award' was exceeded.
Today I was continuing work on the visual and I no longer seem able to make these changes.
Looking thru the forums/online you should be able to make the chart a clustered column chart, apply the formatting then make it a line chart and the formatting stays.. this does not work today either.
Any suggestions?
@dmaddern as you mentioned in your original post, first created a bar chart (make sure nothing on legend) and then applied the formatting, and then finally converted to line visual.
