Hi guys,
How can I set the green colour for when it's '-'/negative and red when it's '+'/positive?
I'm not sure if the is correct, can you please advice?
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @ROG,
You could try this:
if value >= 0 Number and < 100 Number then red
if value >= -100 Number and < 0 Number then green
Let me know if this works 🙂

Hi @ROG ,
Thanks for all the replies!
And @ROG , you can also try to use this DAX to create a measure:
Measure =
SWITCH(
TRUE(),
SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Net Churn Rate MoM Var]) > 0, "red",
SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Net Churn Rate MoM Var]) < 0, "green"
)
Then set the conditional format as below:
Output:

Hello @ROG ,
Set the first rule for negative values like below
1. If value is less than "0", then choose a Green color.
Set the second rule for positive values
2. If value is greater than or equal to "0" then choose a Red color.

Hello @tackytechtom thanks for your reply.
I have done it as you said, but as you can see below it didn't work as expected. Can you advice?
Hi @ROG ,
Could you please reconfirm exactly what your needs are? According to your original requirement, you wanted it to be green when the value was less than 0 and red when it was greater than 0
green colour for when it's '-'/negative and red when it's '+'/positive
And you did achieve that in the results you gave, so what do you mean by it didn't work as expected?

Hi @ROG ,
Hm, in your description it says "How can I set the green colour for when it's '-'/negative and red when it's '+'/positive?"
Your screenshot looks like this or am I missing something?

Hi @ROG ,
Make the entered values consistent. Either use Number or use Percent. While using Number, enter 53% as 0.53.
