It was implemented in charts but not in tables or matrixes.

RE: conditional formatting in tables

Glad to see it is under planning. Really important to ustilise conditional formatting especially if the table includes so many numbers that have different meanings

RE: conditional formatting in tables

I would the ability to control the column color for conditional formatting and also just arbitrarily ie I want the first 4 columns red, the middle columns white, and the last 4 green.

RE: conditional formatting in tables

Adding conditional formats to matrix would allow the creation of performance (sales, profit, volume, etc.) heat maps between cross segments (e.g. how various products perform in various markets, relative to required performance thresholds). It would great value added.

RE: conditional formatting in tables

Color by Individual Columns or Rows, or ranges of Columns or Rows. (both) While useful, it is not a priority to color a column based on a different value.

RE: conditional formatting in tables

We have the need to color matrix cells where rows=hour of day, columns= day of week and values is sum of sales. We would like to color the cells based on the sum of the sales . This would show the "hot sales" hours for any given day of the week. Essentially this is a heat map.
