PL-300 - Visualize and Analyze the Data - Section 3.2

Enhance reports for usability and storytelling using formatting, themes, and accessibility features.

Apply report themes and conditional formatting to guide the reader's eye, and add tooltips and report navigation to improve discoverability. Configure accessibility features such as alt text and tab order so that reports meet inclusive design standards.

A report author wants to know which visual types beyond tables and matrices accept conditional formatting in Power BI. Which visual types does the documentation explicitly call out as also supporting conditional formatting? (Select 3 answers)

  • AColumn chart with bar colour driven by a measure value. Correct
  • BBar chart with bar colour driven by a rule or gradient measure. Correct
  • CButton slicer with the background colour driven by a measure. Correct
  • DSmart narrative visual with title colour driven by a measure.
  • ESlicer with vertical-list values coloured by a measure gradient.
Conditional formatting extends to column charts, bar charts, button slicers, and cards; smart narrative does not support it. The conditional formatting tip notes that besides tables and matrices, conditional formatting is also available for column charts, bar charts, button slicers, cards, and more. Smart narrative explicitly excludes dynamic-value formatting.

Why A is correct: Correct. Column chart with bar colour driven by a measure value is one of the keyed answers. The conditional formatting tip notes that besides tables and matrices, conditional formatting is also available for column charts, bar charts, button slicers, cards, and more.

Why B is correct: Correct. Bar chart with bar colour driven by a rule or gradient measure is one of the keyed answers. The conditional formatting tip notes that besides tables and matrices, conditional formatting is also available for column charts, bar charts, button slicers, cards, and more.

Why C is correct: Correct. Button slicer with the background colour driven by a measure is one of the keyed answers. The conditional formatting tip notes that besides tables and matrices, conditional formatting is also available for column charts, bar charts, button slicers, cards, and more.

Why D is wrong: The smart narrative considerations explicitly list 'using dynamic values and conditional formatting (for example, data bound title)' as unsupported.

Why E is wrong: Visual calculations and conditional gradient colouring are not surfaced on the original vertical-list slicer; the documented list calls out button slicers and cards instead.
