Bar chart formatting

[YBZ]

Hi all,

I have a visual for a full year where I have actuals (currently until June) and from July I have forecasted numbers.

The measure used in the bar chart is using a seperate table in which I include all the Months that have actuals (updated on monthly basis).

Now I would like to visually edit the chart to make the distinction between Actuals and Forecast (make Forecasted months more transparent).  Is there an easy way to do it (preferably as much automatic with a conditional formatting based on my Table that includes the Months where there are actuals).

Thanks!

Regards

Hi @YBZ ,

According to your description, if multiple measures are used in the bar chart visual, it is not possible to customize the conditional format.

If it is a separate measure, you can customize the conditional formatting in the value. Whether it can be applied to multiple visuals depends on the created measure and the options in the conditional format.

For more details, you can read below document:

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information and let me know immediately. Looking forward to your reply.

Best Regards,
Henry

@amitchandak so the only possible way is doing it manual? and updating it every month? Can I do this all at once for multiple visuals?

@YBZ , Conditional formatting is not supported when more than one measure or legend is used. You need to choose a color from options
