Card-Specific Format Condition Settings

For a Card dashboard item, you can apply conditional formatting to the card's visual elements (like Title, Subtitle, different values) and change the card's background.

 

Available settings in the Common section depend on the selected Calculated by option:

 

The Card option specifies a data item container. The format rule is calculated based on the card's values. The Value Type option specifies the card's measurement upon which a condition is calculated.
If the Card dashboard item contains multiple values in data item containers (cards), make sure you apply a format rule to the active card to see changes. Click Layersitem in the dashboard item caption to switch between cards. The expression format rule ignores the specified card and is applied to all cards regardless of the specified value.

For the Data Item option, you can choose a hidden measure or series dimension. The rule applies to all cards in a Card item.

To apply the selected appearance to the Title, Subtitle, values, and other card layout elements, use the Apply to drop-down list. The All elements value applies the format rule to all card elements.

 

If you select a background color, it applies to the entire card and the Apply to value is not in effect.

Some predefined background styles contain a font color. This font color applies to all the card elements regardless of the drop-down list settings (all/particular element).
