Gradient coloring in rows in matrix

Hi All,

 

I have the below heat map scenario where I want to color gradiently per row in the matrix.

Per row the lowest value should have dark color and highest value should have light color.

Hi @ann33 ,

 

According to your description, here are my steps you can follow as a solution.

(1) This is my test data.

(2) We can create a calculated column.

rank =
IF (
    'Table'[value] <> BLANK (),
    RANKX (
        FILTER (
            'Table',
            'Table'[date1] = EARLIER ( 'Table'[date1] )
                && 'Table'[value] <> BLANK ()
        ),
        'Table'[value],
        ,
        ASC,
        SKIP
    ),
    0
)

(3) Setting the Conditional Format and then the result is as follows.

If the above one can't help you get the desired result, please provide some sample data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples. It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. Thank you.

@ann33 , Create measure with date column use in the column

Assume column date as Matrix column field

and Row Date as Matrix row field

 

Use this measure and do gradient formatting based on this measure

 

calculate(

datediff( minx(allselected(Table), Table[Col Date]) , Max(Table[Col Date]) , day) , removefilters(Table[Row date]))
