Conditional Colors

I created a bar chart with a limit line, but each bar is from a different base that I did the data modeling.

I am not finding the option to make a conditional color that if it is greater than the boundary line turns red, if it is less than the boundary line turns green.

can you help me ?

You do not have the option of conditional formatting in colors.

Hey @Anonymous ,

 

this is simply not possible, as Power BI does not allow to change the fill color if the color is used for identifying the single "member" inside a cluster. The fill color will be automatically applied to the members inside a cluster, based on the color in the legend (the single member). It's not possible to overwrite the fill color using conditional formatting.

 

Maybe, you will create an idea on ideas.powerbi.com

Tom
