Create a Measure with the Up Arrow:

UpArrow = UNICHAR(9650) -- This is the black ▲ symbol

You can create another measure that assigns a color based on the value. For example, to make the arrow green when certain conditions are met:

ColorMeasure = IF([YourValue] > 0, "Green", "Black")

Go to the “Format” pane. Expand the “Conditional formatting” section and choose “Font color”.Select the field that contains your conditional color logic (ColorMeasure).

Workaround with Color using Emoji:

If you're open to using emojis instead, you can use a green up arrow emoji (🟢🔺). The color may vary slightly depending on the platform, but it's green by default.

UpArrow = "🟢🔺"

I need to use this perticular measure inside the measer with concatenate with other measures there i cannot able to use the conditional formatting or any other formatting. I used this perticular solution but not useful in my case. Thanks
