    Hi Back2Basics ,

     

    Believe that for this case you need to create a unrelated table with the unique ID's then you need to create a measure similar to this one:

    Condittional formatting = IF(SELECTEDVALUE(SlicerID[ID]) in VALUES(UniqueID[ID]), 1)

     

    Now on the condittional formating select rule and value equal 1 should give something similar to:

    Hi Back2Basics ,

     

    That is related with the fact that probably those lines include all values on the slicer.

     

    Try to change your measure to:

     

    Condittional formatting =
IF (
    ISFILTERED ( SlicerID[ID] ),
    IF ( SELECTEDVALUE ( SlicerID[ID] ) IN VALUES ( UniqueID[ID] ), 1 )
)

     

    This will make sure you have selections on the slicer.

That is great, thanks. Worked a treat. 

I've not done much with measures, so getting help like this goes a long way for me. Thanks
