Hi @Anonymous,

Create a Measure that returns the Hex Code you want to apply to your Back/Font Color, then use the Field Value option when setting up conditional formatting

back color = if([target]<=[actual], "#008000", "#FF0000")

Hope this helps,

Richard

Thank you for your solution. Now I got one measure with color code. How can I use this with conditional formating so font or background of Target color should get.

Hi @Anonymous,

You would use the conditional value by value option

[richbenmintz]

Hi @sbhan4,

The Value needs to be a string that represents the color, like the back color measure created

Thanks for your help!. It's not working. I have created a Black color measure. How to use that column for conditional formating.

Could you please try it in power bi workbook for me.

If Target is < Actual - red color font

if target >= Actual - Red color font

Hi @Anonymous,

Have a look at this .pbix, sample.pbix , it contains a conditional formatting measure.

Hope this Helps,

Richard

@richbenmintz Perfect!! It was helpful.

if(COALESCE([Val 1]<[Val 2], [Val 1]<[Val 3], [Val 1]<[Val 4])= BLANK(), "#FFFFFF", "#008000")

If i have tons of records not only 4 rows, in this case can i use if(COALESCE([Target]<=[Actual],"#FFFFFF", "#008000") now where to use BLANK

[richbenmintz]

Hi @Anonymous,

Assuming [Target] and [Actual] are measures, you would likely use

if([target]<=[actual], "#FFFFFF", "#008000")

The Coalesce in my example was a shortcut for an 'Or' condition, essentially checking to see if any of the cases evaluated to true().

@Anonymous , create a measure that returns color based on this condition and use that in conditional formatting with "Field" Option

Color sales = if(AVERAGE(Sales[Sales Amount])<170,"green","red")
Color Year = if(FIRSTNONBLANK(Table[Year],2014) <=2016,"lightgreen",if(FIRSTNONBLANK(Table[Year],2014)>2018,"red","yellow"))

Color  = if(FIRSTNONBLANK(Table[Year],2014) <=2016 && AVERAGE(Sales[Sales Amount])<170 
,"lightgreen",if(FIRSTNONBLANK(Table[Year],2014)>2018,"red","yellow"))
Color sales = if([Sales Today] -[sales yesterday]>0,"green","red")
