I have a table that displays text strings in the body, ie in the "values". These values are typical single or pairs of words, "dance", "Crime", " "New Age", "Period Drama"
Sometimes the strings are longer words, and you cant see the whole word.
Rather than use wordwrap, I want to make the font dynamic so say a 3 letter word in a cell would appear larger in font size then a 8 letter word. Can font size in a table be made dynamic?
Hi @TomMartens ,thanks for the quick reply, I'll add further.
Hi @StephenF ,
Perhaps you can use the Html visual object.
The Table data is shown below:
1.Use the following DAX expression to create a table
Table = ADDCOLUMNS(SUMMARIZE('Sales_Table','Sales_Table'[Product],"Total",SUM(Sales_Table[Amount])),"Length",LEN([Product]))
2.Use the following DAX expression to create a column in 'Table'
Column =
VAR _a = SWITCH(TRUE(),
[Length] <=5,"5",
[Length] >5 && [Length] <=14,"3",
[Length] >14,"1"
)
VAR _average = CALCULATE(AVERAGE('Table'[Total]),ALL('Table'))
VAR _b = SWITCH(TRUE(),
[Total] < _average,"red",
"black")
RETURN "<tr>" & "<td style= width:150px;><font size=" & _a & ">" & [Product] & "</font></td>" & "<td align=left><font size = 3>" & "Sales: </font>" &
"<font color=" & _b & ">" &
[Total] & "</font></td>" & "</tr>"
3.Use the following DAX expression to create a measure
Measure =
VAR _a = CONCATENATEX('Table',[Column])
VAR _b = SUM('Sales_Table'[Amount])
RETURN "<table >" &
"<tr>" & "<td><font size = 6>Product</font></td>" & "<td><font size = 6>Sum of Amount</font></td>" & "</tr>" &
"<td colspan = 2><hr style = border-color:blue;></td>" &
_a &
"<td colspan = 2><hr style = border-color:blue;></td>" &
"<tr>" & "<td><font size = 6>Total</font></td>" & "<td align=right><font size = 6>" & _b & " </font></td>" & "</tr>" &
"</table>"
4.Final output
Hey @StephenF ,
unfortunately the answer is - No!
The font size of values of the table/matrix visual are not dynamic.
Regards,
Tom
