Formatting Arrow in Card

Hello,

 

So i have a Single Value Card like below

I`d like to add a Green Arrow Up/ Red Arrow Down depends on the results of another DAX measure:

Measure = 

[Transaction from Yesterday] - [Transaction from the day before yesterday]
if the result >0 then there will be a Green Arrow Up stading next to the indicator and vice versa.

If you want to set it up yourself, you can follow these steps:

1) Create a new measure for the arrow based on the measure it refers to:

 

Arrow = IF([% Forecast vs Target]>0; 
            UNICHAR(11014); 
            UNICHAR(11015))

 

2) Create a conditional formatting measure to return green or red:

 

Arrow Condit Format = IF([% Forecast vs Target]>0; 2; 1)

 

3) Create a new card visual and use the measure for the arrow as your value:

4) Go to the formatting options for the visual and under "Data Label" select the elipsis to access conditional formatting options:

5) Select the measure you have created for the conditional formatting and set the parameters.

7) (Optional) Select both card visuals by ctrl + clicking on each, right-click and select "Group".

and you will get this result:

You can of course use the conditional formatting measure to format other elements in the card visual:

Hi @Haidannx ,

You could reference my sample to have a try.

Measure = IF([Diff] >= 0, [Diff] & "⇧", [Diff] & "⇩")

Measure 2 = IF([Diff]>=0, "green","Red")
