    I didn't even know you could do that with a regular text box. Awesome!

    Cool! Love the manually set up smart narratives, this conditional formatting adds the very desired by managekent touch to it

    I followed these steps. However, when the Up Arrow is active, I can still see the placeholder for the Down Arrow and vice versa. How to show only one arrow?

    That is so amazing, nice little hack and I like how flexible it is with any percentage you specify!

    I love the smart text box, I argue it's one of the most powerful updates of the past months. I remember when I first saw it, I was actually trying to revert to the old one, not knowing what to do with it, I just had no clue it was smarter than me.

    Another great video, Patrick! Cortana was the guest in this one! 😂👍 Could you please make a video on how to merge two tables using a condition? For example, the date in one of the table column should be less than today.

    Great video Patrick. We use smart narrative for quick text context usually things like "x had decreased/increased for the last x days" where the line chart on the page is there to show trends and that level of detail isn't immediately obvious. I was thinking, could you not have both arrows in a single switch statement with a defined hex colour for each though?

    nice! is there any plan to allow conditional formatting (colors) of values in text visuals in the future?

  • @dpi3.14

    Patrick, thanks for the video! It's great as always. I have a question about using text measures in text boxes. For example this up arrow. It simply doesn't work in my case for some reason. ANY text measure is ignored. Any ideas who might be the issue? Google didn't help so far.. Thanks!

    I've found for easy Smart Narrative creation you either need to use DAX or create single row tables that update in Power Query and whereafter you can easily pull the values out without the nightmarish question wrangling.

    Hello! Thanks for this. But I would like to know if there's a way to format numbers like in your sample? I would like to use #,##0.0,,M format, cause the amount is too long to look at.

    Hi Patrick, such a nice tutorial!
    Anw, I had a problem when downloading your sample file, it said "Account is cancelled and can not accept new subscribers". Could you fix that so I can download the file sample, please?
    Thanks mate!

    My favorite "conditional formatting" is for +/- % change. Just change the format in the model view to a custom format like so:
    +0.0%;-0.0%;0.0%
    This shows a + in front of positive changes. 🤘

    Hi Patrick, thanks a ton to both of you guys..your videos helped me a lot to clear Da100 in first attempt.... Still one thought to be clarified..anyway is it possible to have multiple column based relation between tables..

    • @HariharasudanP

      One active and another passive is possible. Else go with composite or surrogate key

  • @Baldur1005
    @Baldur1005 3 роки тому

    No gonna lie, smart narratives has amazing potential but the experience building them is far from optimal. For example you cannot format variable by left-clicking on it, you need to drag your cursor and mark it as you would do copy and paste. Great video though!

  • @Garrin1977

    I’m no expert but I don’t understand why you can’t change the text in smart narrative. You said you can only append to it. So confused. Surely you can write whatever you want in there
