Hi @Milozebre ,

 

Try to do like this:

1. creating a calculated column: 

Rank = 
RANKX(
    'Sheet1 (2)',
    [quantity],
     , ASC, Dense
)

2. creating a measure:

Color = 
VAR x = 
CALCULATE(
    MAX([Rank]),
    ALL('Sheet1 (2)')
)
RETURN
IF(
    MAX([Rank]) >= 1 && MAX([Rank]) <= 3,
    "red",
    IF(
        MAX([Rank]) <= x && MAX([Rank]) >= x-2,
        "green"
    )
)

3. adding the measure to "Conditional formatting->Background color":

Hil @v-lionel-msft , 

 

Thank you very much for your reply. 

Its perhaps a stupid question but what's "sheet1 (2)"

Can you please confirm you want to see them highlighted or only see the top3 and bottom3 there ignoring the rest of the data rows.

Hello @luapdoniv , 

 

Thank you for the reply. 

I want to see the same view like that.

If not, only the highlighted 🙂 

 

Thnak you in advance

 

This is the closest I could get.
Highlight top 3 values by conditional format as background color and highlight bottom 3 values by conditional format as font color
OR
Highlight top 3 values by conditional format as background color and highlight bottom 3 Names by conditional format as background color

Will continue R&D to see if your requirement can be achieved. Let me know if this helps.Screenshot_1.png
