Conditional formatting for "rows" in matrix visual?

I can conditionally format my "values" just fine, but I want the row headers to follow the same format. Is there any way to enable that in the matrix visual -- or is there a custom matrix visual which would let me do that?

Edit: To be clear, this is what my matrix currently looks like. I've set a column with numbers for the ID level (i.e. '1' is level 1 and '1.1' is level 2, and so on) and used it to conditionally format my values (columns Valor and Média de AV). I would like the ID column to follow the same formatting as the rest.

If I understood this correctly, I got around it by creating a computed column -- let's call it "ColorPicker".

 

In my instance, my Matrix has 3 rows of data (and multiple columns), the rows and their respective headers are:

StatusA (row 1)

StatusB (row 2)

StatusC (row 3)

 

My colorpicker computed column (which is a Nested IF) basically indicates that in my source data:

IF I come across StatusA, assign colorpicker a value of 1

IF I come across StatusB, assign colorpicker a value of 2

IF I come across StatusC, assign colorpicker a value of 3


Afterward, I apply conditional formatting to the Values within the matrix via:

Format by Rules

Based on field (Min of ColorPicker)

Setup 3 rules:

If value is 1 (number) then Green

If value is 2 (number) then White

If value is 3 (number) then Yellow

 

Now each respective row of the Matrix has its own color.

I would need this too. 

I saw in September 2020 PBI version that one can determine a background color of a visual with a formula. The same option could be applied to "Row Header" background color, and then we would finally have Subtotal background for e.g. financial statements without 3rd party visuals.

@Clara,

 

This is not supported. In the Format section of the Visualizations pane, you may select Style and Row headers.
