In this in-depth Power BI tutorial, you'll learn how to dynamically flag the highest values in your visuals using both DAX formulas and the emerging visual level calculations feature. The walkthrough demonstrates how changing selections automatically updates highlighted peaks, enhancing interactivity. While visual calcs are still a preview feature with a few quirks, this video dives into how to enable and apply them to streamline conditional formatting, saving you from complex DAX.

You’ll also explore some common bugs and limitations with visual level calcs, like disappearing formulas and restricted field references, along with clever workarounds. Plus, there’s a bonus trick on how to use a global color highlight measure, so you can instantly update your report's theme. Whether you're an experienced Power BI user or experimenting with visuals, this practical guide will help you level up your reporting game.
