Hello,
New to Power BI. Wanting to format a table's column cells based on the cell value, not the column count.
I want any value 0-6 to be the red icon, value 7 or 8 to be the yellow icone, and value 9 or 10 to be the green icon. Right now, it's considering the COUNT instead of the cell values to determine conditional formatting.
See screenshots below. All I can find is the option to format based on COUNT, not cell value? Can anyone help please?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @kyliejones
Check your ROLE column type, is it TEXT? if yes, change that to whole number then try again to set your conditional formatting.

Appreciate your Kudos!!
Yes, I didn't have the column types correct. Fixed, thank you!

But whereas in my case the column has Text and the Text need to be shown in icons but the conditional formating is taking it as count.
