Adding Page-Level Conditional Formatting Rules in Power BI, a feature that allows users to define one rule and have it automatically applied across all visuals on the page. Ideally, it should also support applying the rule across all fields in a row for consistent, row-level highlighting.
I’m suggesting this idea because I’ve personally struggled with managing conditional formatting efficiently in my reports. When I need consistent highlighting across a dashboard, for example, marking negative values or high-risk records, I have to repeat the same formatting steps visual by visual and column by column. This becomes time-consuming and hard to maintain.
This feature would also help address another limitation: Power BI currently doesn’t support row-level conditional formatting. Page-level rules would be a practical solution that simplifies the process, ensures consistency, and reduces repetitive work for report developers like me.

Thank you for sharing this! 🙏 I completely agree ,,,,having page-level conditional formatting rules would be a game-changer for Power BI users. Like you, I’ve often found myself repeating the same formatting steps across multiple visuals and columns, which is both time-consuming and error-prone. - EimanginabRegular VisitorThank you for sharing this excellent idea; it simplifies the work, prevents repetition, and saves time

Great Idea - Magdi-mgRegular VisitorGreat idea , this would greatly improve consistency and reduce repetitive work .
- TinaBRegular VisitorWould also be helpful if available for "Filters on all pages" option. I have several reports where each page has different measures but the report formatting is the same. Each table has to be rebuilt with the conditional formatting and is very time consuming when you are using special colors based on your organization.
