Highlight Keywords within Large Text Columns

Hi All,

Is there a way in Power BI to highlight keywords in a large feedback text.

 

For example i have a table visualization which contains the feedback which i recieved from customers. If user searches for a particular term/keyword using the searchbox or choose a keyword in the filter/slicer, that term/keyword should be highlighted in the feedback text. 

 

If i search/filter for word "colour" using a text filter or using a slicer that word should  be highlighted in my table visual like in the image given below

Is this scenario possible in power BI using DAX or using any custom visuals?

Thanks in Advance,
Sneha

Hi Amit (@amitchandak),

Thanks for your reply. I'm already using these text filters in my dashboard. I'm looking for a way to highight the filtered/searched keyword within my feedback text column (Added an image in the above description to depict the exact scenario). Do you think this can be achieved in power BI?

Sneha
