Conditional formatting of clustered column visuals

I don't seem to have the option to assign a color value to columns in my clustered column chart.  See below hopefully shows detail.  Best I can do is change color of labels.  See Green/ Purple.  What am I missing?  If set is incomplete I want column to be yellow, else green as is.

Alas.  I wanted to attach a measure so the color was "smart" depending on conditional formatting.  Thanks anyway.

Hi @kylee_anne ,

There is no way to achieve this in this visual.

Can I not attach a measure?  So color is a result of a function?

Hi @kylee_anne ,

It has nothing to do with a measure! The choices here are what you put in the "Legend" Field when you created this visual object.

For example:

I have "a" in red, "b" in yellow, and "c" in green.

The final output is like below:

?  Sorry I cannot see where I attach a measure to a color.  No functions and DAX entry, only single color.  You say I can do this from this screen.  Where?

you select a series and then select the color for this series. Then you repeat.

You are already there. you need to click through all series and select for each the colour.
