How to set conditional formatting negative numbers in red only once

Hi Power BI Community,

 

I'd greatly appreciate it if anyone could let me know how I can set the conditional formatting for a measure which will be respected in any visuals, rather than having to set in each visual one by one.  I have set the measure number to be shown in red for negative numbers in a visual, but other visuals are still showing all the numbers in black.  I prefer not having to repeat the process of setting conditional formatting for negative numbers in red over and over again for each visual.  

Thank you for your help!

Hi @DataNinja777 ,

 

I dont think what you're trying to achieve is currently possible. Conditional formatting is applied at visual-level only. What you can do is copy the visual and change it into something else as desired instead of starting from scratch. Alternatively, you may post this as an idea https://ideas.fabric.microsoft.com/
