It would be great to conditional format a table and/or a matrix based on the cell text, not only numbers

This month we added the ability to format text fields based off a numeric field: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-may-2018-feature-summary/#conditionalFormatting We also are planning on adding a feature that will let you format your text based on comparisons. I'll update this idea based on our progress on that feature.

RE: Conditional Formatting for Text
I need to be able to format a series of fields (full row) in a table based on a True/False field. It is a really simple,
IF field = True, then color: red, ELSE color: black
RE: Conditional Formatting for Text
It's pretty insane that a functionality this basic would be absolutely impossible in a tool as powerful as this.
RE: Conditional Formatting for Text
this tool needs the functionality to format text.
really not that hard to add, just add it to the "is" function as part of the "rules" conditionals.

I echo this comment -
"Seems like a no-brainer. It would be very useful to have a DAX function to set font color/background conditionally: IF([A]-[B]=0,FORMAT("In Balance","Color:Green"),FORMAT("Out of Balance",Color:Red"

Crazy that this doesn't exist! Is this on the roadmap yet?
RE: Conditional Formatting for Text
Are there more plans to make this functionality better?
It would be really great to conditionally format based on "TEXT" criteria, and well as using "IF" statements
RE: Conditional Formatting for Text
I also need this functionality to format based on field value. For example, I need to format a field as follows :
Current=Green
Grace=Yellow
Expired=Orange
Closed=Red
