Epic idea: Conditioanl formatting parameters displayed in legends and tooltips

Interpreting visuals without a clear legend to indicate logic behind specific styles can lead to confusion and decision-making errors. An idea to enhance clarity and transparency by ensuring legends and tooltips accurately display colors, patterns, and other visual components influenced by logics, would enable report consumers to easily understand the applied logic and make more effective decisions.

I don't understand why this has so few votes. Perhaps there's another similar entry? Anyway, the best way to achieve this, IMHO, is to embrace web standards. Let me build my own visualization components using SVG and CSS.

The usage here is necessary. I often use the card in the upper right hand corner to show high level KPIs, which is usually a +/- variance. Green = good, red = bad.

Please add true conditional formatting. A developer should be able to base the lower/upper bounds on either a field value or a dax statement. (Ex. if(x>=y,z,a)

There are a variety of Text based and other conditional formatting upgrade requests. Any chance you can combine those into one? My primary focus is on conditional formatting for text. So if the field returns "Yes", color it green. Thanks, Scott

There are other registered ideas that are almost the same as this one. This uncontrolled idea submitting option is not efficient. I think this is a really important feature but because of the inefficient registration does not get the votes it deserves (now its fragmented). Not my text but I agree fully: I think that Microsoft must spend more time on these basic, fundamentals of reporting / dashboarding. I worry that too often they spend more time chasing cool, "glitzy" functionality, at the expense of the core functionality that other products have

We need this badly - An opportunity to conditional format nonmeasures /additives . There is no possibility to conditional format like if then else. Hopefully you will pay attention to this!

Like we can do with filters we should be able to define data colors not only on the level of a single visual but also on higher levels which are a reports page and even the entire report.
