@Anonymous , Create a unichar measure for arrow
/////Arrow
Arrow =
var _change =[Net Sales YTD]-[Net Sales LYTD]
return
SWITCH (
TRUE(),
_change > 0, UNICHAR(9650),
_change = 0, UNICHAR(9654),
_change < 0, UNICHAR(9660)
)
and you can do conditional formatting using field value option
/////Arrow Color
Arrow color =
var _change =[Net Sales YTD]-[Net Sales LYTD]
return
SWITCH (
TRUE(),
_change > 0, "green",
_change = 0, "blue",
_change < 0, "red"
)
