Background color on a matrix

Hi there,

 

I would like to set a background color depending on a combination of x-y values, I do not care about the data on the field. I would like to set in green when there is a combination of rows and columns and red with another one.

 

Could this be possible?

 

Thanks in advance,

create a measure with the name of the color you want to have for each x/y combination.  Put something (anything) in the values area, and then do conditional formatting based on the measure field. Do this for both the text color and the background color.
