Extend DAX Format Function for colors

Extend Format Function to allow color in format code like in Excel. This would allow far more expressive conditional formatting in formulas. Take it a step further and add codes for bolding, italics and other formatting types. This would allow full flexibility in formatting of reports such as bolding certain rows, etc. Simple change - HUGE benefits! The finance community will thank you greatly! EXAMPLE: =FORMAT(1, "[[RED]] #") //formats number as red =FORMAT(1, "[[#ff0000]] #") //formats number as red (using hex code) =FORMAT(1, "[[RED;BOLD]] #") //formats number as red and bolds
