Custom Conditional Formatting based on user selection.

[MiteshY]

Hello Everyone, 

I am working on a dashboard which requires to change conditional formatting based on user input. 

For eg.

There is a target and conditional formatting is done on it based on 

Minimum value to 90% down arrow

90% to 100% horizontal arrow

Above 100% up arrow.

Now the user wants that the conditional formatting of target should change based on his selection for eg.

If the user wants to change target % from 

Minimum to 80% then arrow should change like

Minimum to 80% down arrow,

80% to 100% horizontal arrow

Above 100% up arrow.

Please help..

Hi @MiteshY ,

Firstly, I suggest you to create a percentage slicer by What if Parameter. Then use between option for that slicer. Here I suggest you to use whole number in what if parameter as below. If you use increment 0.01 and range from 1 to 1.2, Power BI will return incorrect result.

Measure:

Measure = 
VAR _RangeStart = MIN(Parameter[Parameter])/100
VAR _RangeEnd = MAX(Parameter[Parameter])/100
VAR _Percentage =CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[Value]))
RETURN
IF(_Percentage <=_RangeStart,-1,IF(_Percentage>_RangeEnd,1,0))

Finally, you can use conditional formatting in cell elements and set as below.
