How to have fixed backround rows in matrix?

[ovonel]

I can’t seem to do something very basic as selecting the background color for a matrix. I see only this option:

(I don’t see any option for conditional…) I want my matrix to have the first 5 rows (or columns)  yellow background “fixed”, and all the other rows to have white background.

Like this: (without the alternate)

(the visual is hard to navigate, that’s why I want a fixed background for the first 5…)

How can I achieve it?

(I am using the latest Power bi desktop version, it looks very different in other posts regarding this topic).

@ovonel , You can use measure-based conditional formatting to color, but that can only color values part of the matrix, not the row/column
