Hello!
I have a large range (F4:IF45) which has the conditional formatting logic:
If [Cell Value] [is equal to] [“W”]
Apply style: [Light green]
It works!
But, what if within the range I have just 5 rows that I want to follow the following
If [Cell Value] [is equal to] [“W”]
Apply style: [Light yellow]
How would you do this, the easiest way possible?
Assuming you have entered both conditional formats already, the easiest way is to delete the first conditional format in Format > Conditional > Manage and then click Add and re-create it so it becomes the second condition.
Depending on complexity it might be easier to edit the ranges to reverse conditional formatting order.
There is an enhancement request tdf#148154, you could yourself to the CC list.
A slightly complicated, but logically clear way:
Define a single CF for the complete range, but include the restricted variant (in this case for some rows) defining a first case-condition of the Formula is kind to check for the special case.
See attached example.
