Conditional formatting in Matrix's value
Hi community,
I am sharing my Pbix file here.
I am trying to apply different Background colors on Matrix.
Here is my demo:
Currently, this Matrix has two parts.
Left side is Actual and right three columns are Estimate based on logic.
When I try to do the Conditional formating on the Value, it does not give me an option to choose either "Actual" or "Estimate".
It only gives me an option of Count and Distinct Count.
What I am trying to do is apply different background colors on Value depedning output of BudgetType is "Actual" or "Estimte".
How do we go about doing it with current model?
Thank you.
You can write a measure to check on the BudgetType[ActualOrEstimated] and return a color string like this.
Value Format = VAR _Type = SELECTEDVALUE ( BudgetType[ActualOrEstimated] ) RETURN SWITCH ( TRUE (), _Type = "Actual", "Green", _Type = "Estimate", "Red" )Then apply conditional formatting to the Values background based on the Field value of the measure:
You can use color hex values instead also.
Value Format = VAR _Type = SELECTEDVALUE ( BudgetType[ActualOrEstimated] ) RETURN SWITCH ( TRUE (), _Type = "Actual", "#34A853", _Type = "Estimate", "#EA4335" )
