Hello,
I´m currently using a design in PBI for a few line charts. My problem is, that I have a few tabs which all include line charts with different data (x axis: date, y axis: sales, legend: companies). The line charts show always the Top 5 companies (due to TopN Selection). My problem is, that the 5 lines in the line charts do not show the first 5 colors (as given within the design) but one of the 7 other colors given by the design. This seems to me a bit random. Additionally, when I´m in tab 1 and change the colors of the design, the charts in tab 1 show the correct colors for the correct lines (Color 1 --> Line 1, Color 2 --> Line 2.....). If i switch to tab 2, the colors are random matched to the lines. If I´m in tab 2 and change the design, the colors are correct, but the colors in tab 1 are now random. Can someone tell me due to which rule the colors are paired with the lines by PBI?
Best regards
@Anonymous , Based on what I got.
Conditional formatting is not supported as now in visual once you use a legend. So you can not fix color for the top companies or companies by name.
