Conditional formatting in highlighted visual

Hi all,

I recently discovered some unexpected behaviour on a simple bar chart visual. The bars are coloured using conditional formatting, so that once the value drops below zero, the bar turns red.

In the same report page there is another visual, in which I can select a value, on which my bar chart is filtered. Still, the formatting works fine. BUT then I changed the interaction mode to highlight, and that's when my bar chart disappointed me - the bars keep their colour based on the original value.

 

Does anyone know a way to trick this into place?

Ah, look at that! (I swear I did a search before posting!)

 

It is indeed the same issue, but the "solution" is to post an idea - and the referred idea doesn't seem to exist anymore.
