How change a color in a dynamic expression

I need to change color in a bar chart that have this expression.

=(if(vView='MWh' and vTime='Month', Only (MonthProd), if(vView='MWh' and vTime='Year',Only(YearProd),

if(vView='Revenue' and vTime='Month', Only (MonthRevenue), if(vView='Revenue' and vTime='Year',Only(YearRevenue),

if(vView='Opex' and vTime='Month', Only (MonthOpex), if(vView='Opex' and vTime='Year',Only(YearOpex))))))))

vView and vTime are variables.

where MonthProd, YearProd.. etc are all different expression.

Hello,

in your chart, go to colors tab, select the first colour of the list and change the base color by a calculated one:

if(sum(sales) >0, green(), red())

If this is all one expression, you should be able to reference the expressions name in the background color attribute - so If([Your Expression Name] < 0, Red(),) for example.

Hi PasCos88

First give a label name to your Expression like

Next  write the following condition based on the above label name

Thanks all for the quick reply.

It is work well really thanks.

If some one can help me again, I have another problem.

I need to return 2 expression in one if condition.

i.e  

     if(vVariable = 'Yes', Only(A) and Only(B), if(vVariable='No', Only(C) and Only(D)))

A and B or C and D will be show like a bar in the same chart.

Thanks for replay

Hi Pasquale Cosimato


If you have to colour code based on other measures which are not being used in a visualization, you can make use of the colour mix wizad from the expression editor screen as well. This will help you build complex colours expressions with ease.

Hi Pasquale,

I am assuming that this is a measure. If so, it would be easy if you use set analysis

For example: if(vVariable = 'Yes',sum({$< company = {'A','B'}>}sales), if(vVariable='No', sum({$< company = {'C','D'}>}sales)
