Is it possible to highlight some dates on a visual?

Again, technically yes, it does exist. It is the conditional formatting feature, but it only exists for Tables.

Greg_Deckler I'm trying something like I did in the following image.
I have a datasource with the revenue, profit, etc... and I would like to dynamically highlight in the same visual some dates in that period as you change the selected period. All the dates I want to highlight are already defined in other datasource.
Is it possible?
Ah, so technically "yes". What you would do is go to the format area of the bar chart (the paintbrush icon). You would expand "Data colors". You would then move the slider to "Show all" to "On". Then you go find your dates and change their colors.

Greg_Deckler Yes, I could do that but I'm trying to do it automatically as month changes and as new months are added.
Is it possible? I think this highlight functionality is not available.
