Hiding numbers in Conditional Formatin

Hi,

 

How can I hide the numbers in Conditional formatting, when used in Power BI Desktop within a Matrix visualization?

 

I use a few rules with background colours and would like to show colours only (similar to the option in Excel).

 

Thanks,

Tamir

Hi @Anonymous,

 

By my tests, it seems that there is no option for us to hide the numbers in matrix in Power BI currently.

 

You could set the same rlue for font color scales and background color scales. Then you will get the output like below.

Hope this can help you!

there is option to select Icons layout in the Icons advanced controls menu. 

Set it to "Icons only" and this will remove the values and show icons only in the matrix table.!

Hi there! I've found that when you select "Icons only," the value still displays when you hover over the icon, even with Tooltips turned off. Do you know if there's a way to make it so that the value that you used for the icon's conditonal formatting never displays?
