How to format a matrix table

Hi AnandNamburi 

You may want to use conditional formmatting for row headers in matrix visual.

I build a color measure and have a test.

Measure:

Measure = IF(MAX('Table'[Column1])="Furniture",1,IF(MAX('Table'[Column1])="Beauty",2,3))

Set conditional formatting in Background by Rules.

We can use conditional formmatting to format the color in value fields in matrix visual.

For more info to conditional formmatting, you may refer to this blog.

Your demand is a good idea, while it is not supported to implement in Power BI currently.

You can vote up this idea for this function：Conditional Formatting of Row Headers in Matrix

Or you can submit a new idea to improve the Power BI.
It is a place for customers provide feedback about Microsoft Office products . What’s more, if a feedback is high voted there by other customers, it will be promising that Microsoft Product Team will take it into consideration when designing the next version in the future.
