Interpreting visuals without a clear legend to indicate logic behind specific styles can lead to confusion and decision-making errors. An idea to enhance clarity and transparency by ensuring legends and tooltips accurately display colors, patterns, and other visual components influenced by logics, would enable report consumers to easily understand the applied logic and make more effective decisions.

Another point to consider conditional formatting: tachometer's range colors.

I hope I'm not duplicating other comments. It would be great to also add conditional formatting for bar chart's label and axis that allows set up based on a measured or calculated columns.

Please do this. I want the same color to represent the same unique items across multiple charts and it takes a long time to set up.

It's late june 2019, I was going to ask this feature and I understood it was requested 3 years ago. Too bad it has been not implemented, I find absurd this gap in a professional system.

Conditional Formatting of field names would be awesome - then I could make my reports / charts really multi-lingual.

I think we need the Conditional Format in all the visual objects, this would open the doors to many opportunities of personalization of our reports
RE: Epic idea: Conditioanl formatting parameters displayed in legends and tooltips
Agreed - nothing more unprofessional than having two charts with completely different color schemes for the same field. AT LEAST make sure they are consistent, but beyond that let us pick our own as well.

Same here. My team are developing multiple reports using some common dimensions. Would like to be able to lock in the colour for each dimension value so that visuals maintain consistent styling across all the reports -- e.g. the pie slice for "apple" is always red, or the chart line for "Banana" is always yellow, etc. We were hoping the colours could be defined via our custom JSON theme or in the dimensional table somehow.
