    Hi inf1948,

    To achieve what you described you must follow these steps:

    1. Create a separate table that will have the period dictionary and use it in the slider.
    2. Create a measure that will dynamically check whether the selected period is larger or smaller.

     

    Measure = 
    VAR _period = SELECTEDVALUE('Period'[Period])
    VAR _tableperiod = SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Period])
    RETURN IF(_period > _tableperiod,0,1)

    _period - dictionary, tableperiod - table with data

     

    • Use this measure in Conditional formatting.

    The result (I used background color, but you can also use this for font color):
