Highlight slicer/filter when in use

Hi,

is there an easy way to change the colour of a (header of a) slicer when it´s in use? For example when nothing is selected/filtered it`s blue but if I choose one (or more) options it changes its colour to red? I already tried it via conditional formatting with a measure but it`s unfortunately not working. Would be a great way to make a report more transparent and clearer. Thanks for helping me out!

    HI Anonymous ,

    Current power bi not support do conditional formatting on slicer visual and cusotm visual header.

    If you mean use slicer to formatting other visuals(table, matrix), you need to confirm slicer not have relationship to source table, then you can write a measure to compare selected value and current row content to return color code.
    After these steps, you can enable conditional formatting on your value fields based on above measure with conditional formatting 'field value' mode.

    If you are confused on coding formula, please share some sample data for test.
