    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.

    This is a must for dates. Particularly relatively (i.e. within the last month)

    The ONLY thing holding me back from making my monthly report super valuable and professional looking is this color issue. (e.g. this department should be able to quickly look at the report and know - my stats are purple... how is purple doing this month?... because the rest is just nice to know for them)...

    Would be great to add same conditional formatting capabilities as in SSRS

    This is critical in many matrices and graphics

    Conditional formatting desperately needs to be updated. I can't believe I can do so many powerful things with this product, but easily coloring text red if the date is older than X years (for example) isn't one of them. It is extremely frustrating.

    Additionally conditional formatting across rows instead of columns needs to be incorporated.

    This is a must. The data bars in matrix/tables need more color options (such as based on defined value ranges) 0-6 RED, 7-8 AMBER, >9 GREEN

    I desperately need to be able to conditionally format the segments of a pie chart

    Conditional color formatting on PIE/Donut charts would be extremely beneficial. Color banding depending on fill value. eg,
    >80% = Green
    >60% = Yellow
