Images as Column values in Table Visual

Can we show some icons images in Table Visual for a column value? I want to show arrow icons if a value in column is between limits etc. Just some up/down/side arrows type basic icons.

I will not give you bad advice, even if you unknowingly ask for it.

 My requirement is to show something like this table. CARD visual or other custom visual info does not work for this case.

This is possible. You will have to use URLs as the measure/column values, and then select the corresponding measure/column and then go to modelling tab -> Data categor -> Image URL.

 

 

Once this is done, if you add the corresponding column/measure to a table, it will display the linked image.

Hi Sean,

 

i am having the similar issue. I am trying to display image as the values of the image. however, after applying the settings you mentioned, it doesn't work for the values, it only works for the row header..... Do you know how come it doesn't work for the values in a matrix?

 

thanks,

Vida

Hi Sen,

 

I am looking for this, can you please let me know if you find any solution for this.

Naga.

Hi Naga,

 

what i found is that you have to use 'TABLE' instead of 'MATRIX' to make the image work. in your dataset, you should have a column containing the HTML of the images you want to apply.

@Mi2n  @PowerBIGuy1's image is actually a matrix and the images will have to go into the Values!

 

Can you show us how to do this - without creating an Image Column for each Day of the Week and using a table?

Probably the closest is the fantastic info-graphic custom visual which you can download from here

I recommend you download the sample as well so you can follow the useful hints.
