make slicer selections different font colour

I have a slicer with 3 options: US, EU, ASIA. I would like to be able to change the font colour for each of these options. I would like US to appear Blue, EU appear red, and ASIA appear green. Is this possible?

You create a numeric measure for it like:

 

Measure = 
VAR __value = MAX('Table'[Column])
RETURN
SWITCH(TRUE(),"USA",1,"EU",2,"ASIA",3)

Or, create a column that assigns a number based on the text value. Base your conditional formatting on this measure or column.

Hello @Greg_Deckler I need some quick help from you. I'm essentially looking to have dynamic text heading in one text box with multiple slicer selections. Additionally, I'd like to assign different colors to each slicer. Is it possible to accomplish this in Power BI?

Well, not in a slicer. You could put the three in a table and use Conditional Formatting. Depending on what you are doing, selecting a row in a table is pretty much a slicer.

The conditional formatting is for numerics only, not text
