The recent addition of conditional formatting for values is wonderful. However, it would be great to have the ability format subtotals and totals, as the variation on those fields are often even more important to draw attention to.

Much needed. I'm surprised it has not been completed already. Power BI needs to concentrate on the current features while advancing. Not just work on new features.

Here is a workaround:

It is a necessary feature for any boss who sees his employees but cannot see the total he delivers.

Please add. When the visual is being used for a dashboard it's important to have the formatting carry to the total for an aggregated result.

RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices

This is another one of these, far too common, missing features in PowerBI that makes us look silly in front of people who are used to working with or seeing Excel reports. The looks you get when you tell people "it can't do that"! Please fix :-)

RE: Conditional Formatting for Total and Subtotals in Matrices

This is a an important requirement and otherwise appears as a partial utility only. Please enable this asap with a setting "extend to Sub total / Grandtotal" :)
