The recent addition of conditional formatting for values is wonderful. However, it would be great to have the ability format subtotals and totals, as the variation on those fields are often even more important to draw attention to.

This is a basic necessity when using a matrix.
RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices
Conditional formatting for Totals and Subtotals should be there as its a basic feature.
RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices
Seems like it should have been a basic feature along the values conditionnal formatting.
RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices
Is there any update on this? Thanks.
RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices
I agree - this is a must have requirement and needs to be added otherwise what is the point of showing different levels. The whole idea is to drill down from summary to detail with the ability to see the status at the summary level.
RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices
It has been a huge loss not being able to conditionally format the totals and subtotals. There are cases where you want to highlight a KPI for the summarized values in an array, especially arrays that use Drill Down levels.
RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices
Oh c'mon! everything we're lately needing seems to be backlogged!! This is basic formatting functionality on Excel and other products. Please make it a bit easier for us to provide the I on BI to our users! :@
RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices
I use PowerBI extensively...But the lack of some very basic Office features like this one, click drag to select multiple items, etc... Turns the experience way more frustrating than it should be on the developer side.
RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices
Yet another on the long list of annoyances. It's just not a mature product...
RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices
Seriously? This is a fundamental reporting need that totally screws up many of the tables I try to produce. And then I have to explain that Power BI just sucks and yet still try to justify using it. You are making it exceedingly difficult to do so with such elementary aspects like this not being addressed. And add to that the formatting of row headers when you show values by row!
