Not ideal (because too many visuals take a while to load), but in the past, I have used conditional formatting on card visuals, to create something similar, with text boxes as headers.

Hi Miguel!,  sounds like an option, but  i need to have the column names below and the "Status" hiden to represent exactly the matrix as in my screen, users are use to that and i can not changer..  do you see any workaround? all the best,  

Hi @cg1980 ,

 

Using the Matrix visualization you can do the following:

 

  • Create a measure:

 

Values for Table = IF(ISINSCOPE('Table'[Status]), SUM('Table'[Value]), MAX('Table'[Importance]))

 

  • Place the measure on the matrix and make the column headers blank.

You can also try to use a custom chart from charticulator:

If you want I can try and build one and guide you trough.
