customize color in waterfall chart

[jitpbi]

Hi,

I am working on the below dataset to show it on the waterfall chart:

Month	Parameters	Value
Jan-20	Production	90
Jan-20	loss1	5
Jan-20	loss2	4
Jan-20	loss3	1
Feb-20	Production	94.20
Feb-20	loss1	3.60
Feb-20	loss2	1.20
Feb-20	loss3	1
Mar-20	Production	84.6
Mar-20	loss1	5.4
Mar-20	loss2	3.7
Mar-20	loss3	6.3
Apr-20	Production	92.50
Apr-20	loss1	1.10
Apr-20	loss2	2.30
Apr-20	loss3	3.10

I need to customize the colours of loss1, loss2 and loss3 instead of green and also how to show losses downwards instead of upwards:

Please suggest how to achieve this.

Thanks

Just found a quick workaround for this visual. If you're looking to only have one consistent color across all dimensions in the waterfall chart, you can use a calculated measure with a hex value: 

1. Create Measure for this hex value, such as: WATERFALL_BAR_COLOR = "#5A9DB4"
2. Change Data Type of this measure to Text
3. Under the Bar Color menu for this visual, hit the fx formula button and apply WATERFALL_BAR_COLOR to one bar

This will affect all of the dimensions and allows you to change all colors of the chart in one place, janky though this solution may be.

Actually, the bar color option is empty, I think because the updates of power BI.

Hi, @jitpbi 

If you want to customize bar color, you can try Simple Waterfall. You need set ‘Format using Sentiments’ to off, and then customize bar color.
