How to use emoji in table and matrix?

[wujunmin]

Using emojis in Power BI is pretty cool and not too tricky. You can pop them up using  IME, or the UNICHAR function works great for showing them. And creating a measure for emojis? Piece of cake! 

Emoji = IF([KPI]<=3,"😁","😟")

UNICHAR = IF([KPI]<=3,UNICHAR(128513),UNICHAR(128577))

But here’s the fun part – adding emojis to conditional formatting. You don’t want them just sitting in their own column, right?

So, here’s the deal with emojis: they’re like text. And in Power BI, text can’t be used as an icon in conditional formatting. But guess what? Images can! So, let’s get creative. We’ll just wrap those emojis in an SVG Text tag, turn them into nifty images, and then use them in our conditional formatting. 

Emoji_SVG1 =
"data&colon;image/svg+xml;utf8,<svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' width='48' height='48'>
<text x='24' y='26' text-anchor='middle' dominant-baseline='middle' font-size='40'>"
&IF([KPI]<=3,"😁","😟")&"
</text>
</svg>"

Emoji_SVG2=
"data&colon;image/svg+xml;utf8,<svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' width='48' height='48'>
<text x='24' y='26' text-anchor='middle' dominant-baseline='middle' font-size='40'>"
&IF([KPI]<=3,UNICHAR(128513),UNICHAR(128577))&"
</text>
</svg>"
