Matrix Formatting

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I have a few questions about formatting in the matrix.

1. How can I hide these totals for the category (row) marked in blue (Financials)? I don't want any numbers to appear in there.

2. How can I color all "cells" in columns vPY and vOP (marked in green)? For some reason, the color appears only for the values and this looks ugly with a white background on the category name level.

3. You can also notice, that the horizontal grid between, for example, Backlog Turns and Idle Backlog (or Idle Backlog % and On-hold Backlog) is lighter or thinner than the ones between Backlog & Backlog Turns or On-hold Backlog and On-hold Backlog %. Do you know how to make it equal thick? 

Here is my measure for "Current" column:

Value-CY-Txt = 
FORMAT(
    calculate(sum('fact_Metrics'[Value]),'dim_Calendar'[Date].[Year]=2020,'fact_Metrics'[Scenario]="Actual"),
        SWITCH (
            TRUE (),
                MAX(dim_Metrics[Data Type])="Ratio", "0.0%",
                MAX(dim_Metrics[Data Type])="Currency","$#,0",
                max(dim_Metrics[Data Type])="Number","0",
                max(dim_Metrics[Data Type])="Decimal","0.0"
                )
)

thank you for your reply, but it doesn't help. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Seriously, no option to remove the subtotals from the rows or to color whole column without white spaces... ?

Hello,

You might try the custom visual Financial Reporting Matrix. It gives you more control over formatting, etc.
