Conditional formatting not working when filter with a slicer

Hi all,   I hope you are well and safe.   I am having an issue when I am using a slicer to filter weeks on my report. I made a simple conditional formatting where if the value is greater than 99%...

    Anonymous  You need to use 'number' not 'percent' in your conditional formatting: 

     

     

     

    Percent refers to the total number of values, so when you have a filter with only 1 value, that single values makes up 100% of the number of values. 

     

    When you have a filter that filters down to 2 values, a single value is 50% of the total number of values, so the greatest one would be highlighted in green (at 100%) and the lower one would be at 50%.

     

    When you have 3 values, they each account for 33% of the total number of values, 

     

    and so on.

     

    Hope that helps?
