Hi,
Is it possible to conditionally format a column in a Matrix grid?
I have the grid below and want to set a different background colour for the current month. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
Hi @Trosa_220568 ,
Please try this measure.
Measure =
VAR _today = TODAY()
VAR _month_year = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Month Year])
VAR _color = IF(_month_year = FORMAT(_today,"mmm yyyy"),"Yellow")
RETURN
_color
