Chart colour based on values

Anonymous — Mon, 17 Jul 2017 11:44:48 GMT

Hello

I am creating a bar graph and I am looking to change the colours if they certain bar reach a certain level

Its split into 2 groups

A,B - Blue

C,D - Red

But I want to make it so that if A or B reach 5 they change colour

same with the rest

i.e.

IF (A => 5 rgb (50,50,100), rgb(0,0,100))

If A reaches 5 or more change colour otherwise stick with being blue

Then same with the rest

If you could help it would be appreciated

Thank you

How are you splitting this? do you have one or two dimensions? What is your expression?

Go to Appearance/Colors

Turn off Auto Color and then choose By Expression

Enter your expression something like this but using your fields, values, and colors. You can replace the Green(), Red() with actual RGB values for more specific colors.

If (Count(distinct {<CurrentActive={1}>} [Employee_ID])/Count(distinct [Employee_ID])=1,Green(),Red())

Hello

Ive just separated them by a value then coloured them

if([Field] = 'A', rgb(0,0,100),

if([Field] = 'B', rgb(0,0,100),

if([Field] = 'C', rgb(100,0,0),

if([Field] = 'D', rgb(100,0,0),

))))

hope that clears it up

Thank you
