Hi @BIdileepku,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum. Thank you @Deku, for your inputs on this issue.

In Power BI, it is currently not possible to change the colour of individual words within a single Card or Text visual. Unlike Tableau, Power BI does not support partial text formatting (such as colouring only the word “mean”) in dynamic text generated by DAX. However, there is a workaround you can use:

Split the sentence into multiple visuals for example:

  • Visual 1: “Annual growth in” (black)
  • Visual 2: “mean” (blue)
  • Visual 3: “rent price” (black)

You can align these visuals side-by-side to make them appear as a single sentence. This approach allows you to colour "mean" differently while keeping the rest of the text in black. Additionally, you can use a DAX measure to dynamically update the text based on the slicer selection.

Kindly please refer to the below links for more information:

Hi @BIdileepku,

Thank you for your reply. If the workaround with splitting visuals doesn't meet your needs, I would be happy to explore other options.

Currently, Power BI does not support partial text formatting within a single card or text box (unlike Tableau). However, you could:

  • Use multiple text visuals to style individual words differently.
  • Consider custom visuals like Deneb or HTML Viewer that offer more advanced formatting using Vega/HTML.

Let me know your specific requirements, and I can provide a more tailored solution. If this post helps, then please give us ‘Kudos’ and consider Accept it as a solution to help the other members find it more quickly.

Thank you again for your participation in the community!
