Hi Vamsi,

Try the custom expression like "if(Type='Discussion',blue(),if(Type='Replies',Green(),Red()))"

By default when you use custom expression the legend wont appear...

If you want the legend to appear then go by the custom color by dimension - type

Hope this helps

Thanks,

Hi

Thanks for reply. I tried and i am not getting desired behavior. Did you use anything for measures. Did you add Type as measure or anything specific?

I am always getting Last mentioned color. I believe i am doing something wrong in measures so that my expression is not recognizing.
