Hello,
So, we have this nice "new" card visual, which existing for quite some time. And it has Conditional formatting for color of value which you can adjust under "Callout values" option in Format. But today I found out that it stopped working (I'm pretty sure it did in the past).
Example of how visual looks:
Here you can format color for value:
The format I use is based on the same measure as in the visual, it's simple red or blue depending on value:
And it just doesn't work.
But when I simply switch to "old" card visual it works as expected:
Any ideas why?
Solved! Go to Solution.
hi @v-mdharahman
Sorry for late response but i was absent plus wanted to test conditional formatting (CF) more carefully.
1. So I can confirm that situation improved and that visual is responding to CF again after last PBI Destop update.
2. Unfortuantely there are still unexpected behaviour like when you start applying CF order of your measures in visual can suddenly change and it won't react for your attempts to change the order back. I haven't found any better workaround to this, only removing the measure with CF and applying CF again (seems to help).
3. To sump up, as @danextian suggested - as long as this visual is in "preview features" everyone should be really careful with using it. I find it quite useful, and would be happy if all bugs would be fixed and it would be generally available.
Same here.
It seems conditional formatting still works for details but not for callout values.

The new card visual still is a preview feature so expect for bugs. I've been using it but with caution as some features might work but suddenly stop doing so.
oh my... I thought it exists for ages so probably is stable now. Apparently I was wrong. Thanks for noticing this. The problem still stays so I don't mark anything solved but clearly will think twice now before using this visual.
Hi @pirdim,
As @danextian already responded to your query, please go through his response. Also as stated by @danextian that the New Card Visual is still in preview, you can go through the below link to get a better idea of the visual and the changes being made to it.

Hi @v-mdharahman ,
I answered to danextian above. And I did go through his response apparently.
Regarding "still having problems" - functionally of conditional formating is still not working properly, so you might tell I still have problems with it. I understand that the viusal is still in preview, so I don't expect any quick solution. But still would be nice to make it work eventually. Thanks.
