Hello,
I have a report with a pie chart on it. The legend on the pie chart change with a slicer. The thing is I would like to set colors for the slicers not based on the legend but on the value. For example, now I set the value as : red for Cars, blue for Plane, green for Train. And now I would like to set them as : red for the biggest value on the pie chart, blue for the second, green for the third...
Do you know how to do that ?
Thank you !
Solved! Go to Solution.
@Wael03 , Create a Rank Measure and then Try to create a measure like
Switch( True() ,
[Rank]=1, "Red",
[Rank]=2, "Blue",
[Rank]=3, "Green",
"Yellow"
)
Covert the pi to bar, Apply conditional formatting using bar color fx, Use field value option and choose this new measure
You can use Rank or Rankx for rank
