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

 

Regards,

Tom
