    I see in that case you can use unicode characters.

     

    SentimentIcon = 
VAR _SelectedSentiment = MAX(Sentiment[Sentiment])
RETURN
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    _SelectedSentiment = "Positive", UNICHAR(128578),
    _SelectedSentiment = "Negative", UNICHAR(128545),
    _SelectedSentiment = "Neutral", UNICHAR(128528)
)
