Custom colour when column highlighted

 

 

Hi

 

I have a table with employee hours as a measure and months in the X axis.  In this screenshot you can see I have selected November and the colour is dark grey. I want the selected month to be blue, and the unhiglighted columns to remain light grey. How can I achieve this?  

 

Thanks in advance

Hi @dogtanian 

You can use this to select color,

For this, "the selected month to be blue, and the unhiglighted columns to remain light grey." it is also not possible by using conditional formatting. If you really need that function, you can go to Idea forum, and create an idea there, then others can vote for it. Ideas (powerbi.com)
