Hi 

Instead of segment colors in master items if they give the option to write the expression based coloring this will help the developers a lot 

thanks

Yeah I find the current method of using the slider to set the segments kind of frustrating. I would strongly prefer to be able to write an expression and reference  variables.

ABSOLOUTELY!    I quite often want to set thresholds to 3 minutes which would be simpe and clear as  =3/(24*60)   but you have to enter 0.0020833 which is the decimal proportion of a day that 3 minutes represents.

ALL THAT IS REQUIRED is to add the Fx link to the expression editor to that field.    Please comment on this so as to get it up the list - it must be simple change for a big win!   Thanks  Philip

totally agree...  should also be able to add any measure/variable into the color segments...

Thank you all for your feedback on ways to improve our product. While this is something we understand would be useful, it's not on the short-term roadmap. Please continue to show your support for this idea by commenting and liking.

Sometimes complex color expressions are better suited as a calculated master dimension. 

Thanks, 
Patric
