Excel has a very useful and fancy way to visualize data directly on the spreadsheet called “conditional formatting”. Now that is also available in the coming Origin2019 with three options
- Highlight: Color cells that meet the condition
- Heatmap: Color cells by values using a palette or a color list
- Duplicates: Color cells with duplicate values
The idea of conditional formatting is to easily identify the key pieces from large datasets, by applying special formatting to cells in the spreadsheet that meet certain criteria. It visually calls user’s attention to important data points like outliers or a certain event.
Some examples:
How to apply basic conditional formatting?
Highlight the targeting range and hit the menu Worksheet: Conditional Formatting.
How to management existing conditions?
We support multiple conditional formats in different regions of worksheet. And you can choose Worksheet: Conditional Formatting: Conditional Format Manager to config it further (condition/color/etc.) or delete it.
