Matrix data bar conditional formatting - based on difference from column average

Hello, 

c4 matrix conditioning.PNG

I currently have this table, which has a measure in each of the columns. I want to conditionally format the data bars based on how much they differ from the average for the column (which would change dynamically based on slicers). Seems like something which should be possible, but I cant figure it out. Does anyone know if it is possible?

 

Also, is it possible to add an average row to the bottom on the matrix, there only seem to be total/subtotal options, but these arent helpful to me. 

 

Thanks in advance!

@Anonymous I don't think there is possibility today to conditional format data bar in matrix. Post an idea on ideas forum if it doesn't exists or vote the existing idea.
