Conditional formatting stops working when 'show items without data' is selected

In a PBi report, table visual with several projects, I want to color the cells of various columns (project caracteristics) orange when there is no value (no data entry). This works fine, as long as I do not use 'show items without data'. When I toggle this on ALL cells with conditional formatting turn orange, even if they have a value. If I toggle it off, no items are shown. The whole idea is to show all items, and color the background of empty cells orange when there is no data entry (everything should be populated). It seems that some columns have no value at all (waiting on data-load) causing the problem? Can this be resolved in a simple way?

    Hi Chris_Kegler 

    You can write a seperate measure for color fomatting
    Color= if(Min[Project name] = Blank()," Orange", "white")

     

    then set this as cell element of project name background color > Field value> Color

     

     

     

    I hope I answered your question!
