Conditionally Format a Visual Table by referencing multiple columns names within a Table?

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone, 

Any ideas how to format a table column through dax to obtain column E by referencing columns 1, 2, & 3? My search has lead to conditionally format the values within the table. Or more specifically, just format the colors of colume E in a visual table?

This seems to be done by evaluating the values from only Col_1 or formatting via specific words like "car", "bus", "train" like Col_3, but this doesn't seem like applicable solution in this case where the desired formatted column consist of 3 columns indivudal columns combined. 

Examples found conditionally formatting a column:

Hi @Anonymous ,

As far as I know, currently conditional format is applied for the whole field in the column, not for part of fields so it is not supported in power bi desktop by using dax and conditional format.

Perhaps you can submit the requirement to ideas and add your comments there to make this feature coming sooner: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas

You could do it with svg and an image url measure/column but it may not be worth it.

Hi, @Anonymous , conditionally format applies to the whole field; you can't color a field partially so far.

BTW VBA does the trick, with Range.Characters() attribute.
