Adding conditional formatting to an Icon widget

You can apply conditional formatting to an Icon widget to highlight important conditions in the data.

Rules are applied from the bottom of the list up, so the top rules will take priority. You can reorder the list of rules to suit your needs. Click and drag a rule to the appropriate spot in the list using the handle on the left side of the rule.
  1. On the icon, right-click and select Conditional Formatting.
    The Conditional Formatting Rules Manager dialog box is displayed.
  2. Click Add Rule.
  3. Specify the rule.
    • Rule Name — type a name for the rule.
    • Operator — select how the value in the Icon widget should relate to the value specified in the Value field.
    • Value — the value that is used to evaluate the rule.
    • Format — specify the formatting of the text if the condition is met. When you select the button, the Color Picker appears where you can control the background color and the text color.
    • Icon Format — specify the formatting of the icon if the condition is met. When you select the button, the Color Picker appears where you can control the icon color.
    • Enabled — select this checkbox to make the rule active.
  4. Click Add Rule to add additional rules.
  5. Click OK.
  1. On the icon you need to edit, right-click and select Conditional Formatting.
    The Conditional Formatting Rules Manager dialog box is displayed.
  2. Edit the rule as necessary. You also can use the Enabled checkbox to turn the conditional formatting on or off. You can select Delete to remove the rule.
  3. Click OK.
