Hi,
I would like to highlight a row in MATRIX. I tried conditional formatting, but this will only highlight the values and doesnt highlight if the cells are blank.
Based ont he table above, I need to highlight every Variance row.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi @Anonymous ,
Your demand is a good idea, while there is no such an option or feature to highlight specific rows include blank values for Matrix visual in Power BI currently. You can post your new idea in Idea Forum , add your comments there to improve Power BI and make this feature coming sooner.

@Anonymous - I am not aware of a way to highlight an entire row. However, you might try something like Stephen Few's Red Dot approach. https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Quick-Measures-Gallery/SVG-Animation-Bouncing-Blinking-Stephen-Few-Red-Dot/m-p/517631#M221
Basically, add a column to your table/matrix that calls attention to that row. Less gaudy than row highlighting.
