How to do conditional formatting on calculated measures?

I have 2 calculated measures - 

 

%change from last year and % change from two years ago. These are calculated measures that are in the "values" card for a bar chart. I'm unable to find the conditional formatting option for these two measures. Please help. Thanks.

Hello, try checking the Data Colors format options.

 

  1. With your visual selected, click format options in the visualizations pane:

  2. Scroll down to Data Colors and expand it. You should see a color selector as well as a Fx button that lets you add conditional formatting.
  3. In my brief tests, I've noticed if you have no Axis assigned, this Fx option doesn't appear. Try putting in a dummy field that all records share so there's only one bar and it should show up.

That worked! Thanks!
