table visual add icons conditional format

Hi

 

I have a table visual that shows tasks and if they have been completed, in power query I have converted from True/false to 1/0 and would like to display the Icons green/red circle.

I have done this before as the second screen shot shows, but I cannot seem to apply it anything I have created recently,  I believe this is since I upgraded to the sept 2020 version of power bi desktop, is anyone else aware if this issue?


 

thanks

    Hi jasemilly 

    I think you may show your problem in your first screenshot. Is your issue that you can't apply to show the icon in conditional format?

    I build a sample to have a test.

    Origanal Table:

    After Transform(converted from True/false to 1/0 )

    Build a table visual and show icon by conditional format.

    It works well and my Power BI Version is Sep 2020(2.85.985.0 64-bit) as well, I think you may need to select fields  and use sum.

    For more info you may refer to this blog: Use conditional formatting in tables

    Have you created any measure for rules? 

    Also take below considerations while working with conditional table formatting- 

     

    Appreciate your kudos!! Mark my post as solution if this helps.

      Hi

       

      No measures just the value of the field, the icons that work don't use measures.

        Check the sample pbix It has formatting considering both one with respect to measure and another with respect to column value-

        It behaves differently

        sample pbix

    Hi jasemilly 

    Could you tell me if your problem has been solved? If it is, kindly Accept it as the solution. More people will benefit from it. Or you are still confused about it, please provide me with more details about your table and your problem or share me with your pbix file from your Onedrive for Business.
