Use different formatting rules in one column of a table

Hi everyone, 

 

I would like to ask for help. 

 

At the moment I am preparing a dashboard and used formatting tool by the table. Look below. 

 

lucacebraak_0-1637919215328.png lucacebraak_1-1637919295891.png

 

In the difference column I used the formatting. But I would like to use a different formatting for 1.revenue/3.netto and 2.costs.

 

Now the minus values at costs seems bad, but in reality it is better dan last year. 

 

Can someone help me out? 

 

Thanks in advance. 

Kind regards, 

Luca

@Anonymous , do you need to do want conditional formatting?

 

You can create a color measure and use that in conditional formatting using filed value option

 

examples

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"))

Try to create a measure like below and apply conditional formatting in difference column.

Measure 2 = 
SWITCH(TRUE(),
        MAX('Table'[type])="1.Recenue","red",
        MAX('Table'[type])="2.Cost","blue",
        MAX('Table'[type])="3.Netto","yellow")
