No Conditional formatting option on Data color
Super UserAnonymous unfortunately conditional formatting is not available for line charts, the trick is to create a column chart, apply the conditional formatting, and then switch it to line visual, data points will use conditional formatting.

I've tried what you said but it still didn't work, no option for conditional formatting, even after switching between a column chart and a line chart. Same results for both new visuals and existing ones.

Hi, Anonymous
Yes, line charts are not suitable for conditional formatting. The above switch is also not feasible.
What kind of user case needs to use conditional formatting for the line chart?, can you please elaborate on what you are trying to achieve or post sample data and expected result so it is clear on what needs to be implemented so that i may work out with a workaround?Best Regards,

If this post helps, then please consider Accept it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.Well, some of the lines on my line chart are subsets that were separeted from the main sets of values. And the line chart can do it, it shows all the subsets.
But, to better visualize the subsets from the same set, I would like to make them the same color instead of showing random colors.
I already have a method of creating hex color codes for different sets and the same hex color codes for subsets within a specific set, but I can't apply them because there isn't conditional formatting.
