Conditional Formatting using Calculation Groups not working

[Anonymous]

Hi fantastic commuinity,

Through this link, I was able to create a calculation group to show or hide columns in a visual matrix

Then I wanted to apply Conditional Formating only to the "Fuel" column, so I created this measure:

Seta Contional Formatting = 
IF(
    SELECTEDVALUE('Hide Columns'[Name]) = "Fuel", //Hide Columns is the Calculation Group
    [Sel_Clientes_Contratos],
    BLANK()
    )

Then I applied conditional formatting from the formatting panel, but it applied to all columns:



Any thoughts on this problem?
Thank you very much,
Simão

Hi @Anonymous ,

I can apply Conditional Formating only to a column in calculation group. This is my PBIX file. Could you please share your PBIX file without sensitive data?

@Anonymous you need to change each Calculation Item in the Calculation Group except for Fuel.

IF (
    ISSELECTEDMEASURE ( [Seta Contional Formatting] ), BLANK(),
    <<your exisitng measure for calculation item >>
)

Sorry for the late response

Did you mean to use SELECTEDMEASURE() rather than SELECTEDVALUE()?
