## 🚀 Key Features
- **Effortless Drag & Drop:**
Quickly create a risk matrix by simply dragging and dropping fields from your dataset. No more complicated configurations!
- **Flexible Grid Dimensions:**
The Risk Matrix Viz dimensions can be customised to suit your needs. Most project management users opt for **3x3**, **4x4**, or **5x5**, but the option is yours — up to a maximum of **9x9** matrix cells.
Unconventional layouts such as **9x3** or **4x7** are also supported.
Risk Levels are set independently of Rows and Columns for maximum flexibility. Set your own number of Risk Levels and name them to suit your case.
- **Dynamic Color Customization:**
🎨 Turn on **Use Gradient Colors** to view a color transition from low to high in gradient style as an alternative to solid colors..
Add a customisable Data Circle, change the color of your data values, make them **bold** or *underlined*.
Default colors are AAA-rated for contrast and accessibility, but you can apply your own colors manually, or use conditional formatting with a DAX measure or rules.
- **Drill Through Functionality:**
Set up a drill-through page and right-click on a matrix cell to view the detailed data behind that aggregation.
- **Extensive Formatting Options:**
Customise axes, add title backgrounds, adjust matrix cell sizes, add grid lines or rounded edges, and more.
