Hi @MUtasem
Unfortunately, with Power BI Core Visuals, there is no built-in functionality to style each individual character differently within a single cell.
To achieve a similar result, you would need to manipulate your list, including splitting the values into separate columns.
The final table should look like the one in the image:
and from there, you can build a Matrix Visual with conditional formatting in a similar style.
However, the formatting will still be different – without rounded edges or advanced visual effects.
Advanced Alternative:
If you need full control over the design, you might be able to achieve this using:
🔹 Deneb – A custom visual based on Vega-Lite that allows advanced formatting.
🔹 HTML+SVG – Creating a custom visual using HTML or SVG to display text and colors.
🔹 Python/R – Using Python Visuals or R Visuals to build graphics that mimic the desired design.
The pbix with transformations of table with PQ to get the needed format
and creating the matrix is attached

Hi @MUtasem
I would add an index column, split the letters in to rows and generate svg images using DAX for each letter to achieve the rounded corners.
