Condtional format matrix

Hi,

 

I have a matrix with values in powerbi. I want to highlight when the value in a row is lower than a previous column.

See below the example with the highlighted values.

Could this be done with conditonal formatting?

Thanks for the link.

I have created a new measure previous period and a measure which calculates the difference between current and previous period.

Only thing is that the underlying rows are highlighted but not the total.

Three columns are shown per period.

 

Actual - Previous Period -  Delta

What do you mean by the previous column? In case it is time, you need to create a previous period measure and use diff to color
