How to show the Conditional Formatting option in Fields tab

[iamkhwan]

Hi All, 

I'm a newbie in the PowerBI world and I'm creating a custom visual app that needs to show the conditional formatting option as the Matrix visual does in a Values in the Fields tab.

 -> 

Currently, I can show the conditional formatting (Fx) in the Format tab only via adding the capabilities.json like the image below.

  

After that, I add the dataViewWildcard in enumerateObjectInstances method in visual.ts file.

Have anyone bring the conditional formatting (Fx) in Values in the Fields tab? 

Thank you so much.

Regards,

Puttarak

Hi @Anonymous, Sorry for late reply. Due, Conditional Formatting doesn't work with Matrix & Table in api v.3.6 (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/developer/visuals/conditional-format). As i researched Conditional Formatting work great with categorical type. Then, I changed my dataViewMapping to Categorical type instead of Matrix type and build Matrix object by manually. 

By this way, It will return data from rule that set in Conditional Formatting menu 🙂

Hi @iamkhwan,

Conditional formatting (which has only just been made available in API v3.5) only supports the properties pane, i.e. how you've currently got it to work. If you want data role support, I'd suggest creating an issue in the GitHub repository for the team to take a look at adding it in.

@V-lianl-msft Thank you so much for your reply. Currently, i use API v3.6 and there is no document for this version in PowerBI-visuals-tools/templates/visuals/.api at main · microsoft/PowerBI-visuals-tools · GitHub
