Hi PaulCo,

 

Please change the Matrix Style from "Default" to any other type, e.g. None

 

Then, you can set the background color for row headers to be the same one as value's background.

 

Best regards,

I want to set the colour of the row headers to only be the same on certain rows. If I follow your instructions then it colours all of the row headers. 

 

I notice that when I deselect the "Show on Rows" option it correctly colours the row (now column) headers the same as the rows (now columns)  but when I select the "Show on Rows" option, the row headers go back to default while the rows themselves stay coloured.. 

 

I'm not sure if this can be done as I need it.

 

Thanks

    Based on my test, it is not able to color one specific row, including values and row headers.
