How to change the label of the Total row in a Matrix

I have a Matrix with 2 rows and a Total Row:

 

Americas  ###.#

International ###.#

Total   ###.#

 

I want to change the label of the Total row from Total to Global. How do I do that?

 

Also, is it possible to add conditional formatting to the Total row?

Hello @WelterM,

 

Sadly, there is no way currently to change the Total row label.

It's a great idea, though. I encourage you to add it to http://ideas.powerbi.com.

 

Conditional formatting doesn't apply to Table Total row or Matrix Subtotal/Grand total row(s) because it operates over the range of values for the most specific (grouped) data points, which are the non-totals.

That's what I was afraid of. Well, thanks for following me around and answering all my NOOB questions.
