Creating calculated column with blanks and number comparison

[Anonymous]

I have a column of "Target" values with some blank rows and a measure calculation "Measure1" based off other columns. I want to create a new column "Value Color" that compares the Measure1 to the Target values and then gives a color based off comparison.

But the Target  has blank rows, so if the Target is blank, then I don't want a color for "Value Color".

I want the dax calculation to be

• if Target is blank, then color is none
• if Measure1 > Target (Target is not blank), then "#31991a"
• if Measure1 <= Target (Target not blank), then "#ff4a4a"

ValueColor =
IF (
    ISBLANK ( 'Table'[Target] ),
    BLANK (),
    IF (
        [Measure1] > 'Table'[Target],
        "#31991a",
        IF ( [Measure1] <= 'Table'[Target], "#ff4a4a" )
    )
)

better to do a switch statement ie.

ValueColor =
SWITCH (
TRUE (),
ISBLANK ( 'Table'[Target] ), BLANK (),
[Measure1] > SUM ( 'Table'[Target] ), "#31991a",
[Measure1] <= SUM ( 'Table'[Target] ), "#ff4a4a",
BLANK ()
)
