How to color a line graph based on what's on the axis?

Hi everyone,

 

I have a line graph that represents a process. I want the first 4 points to all be yellow, the next 2 to be green, and the last to be gray. How can I do this in Power BI? It only lets me color by the value rather than on my slicer.

Hi ailsazheng, 

In older  version, we could control the point color, you could refer to this video  for details. But corrent version don't support this feature. So I suggest you could sumbit this in power-bi-ideas

@ailsazheng hi there, I don't think there is a conditional formatting possible for Line chart, may be your best bet is to you bar chart and you can use conditional formatting for bars and choose the color as per your requirement
