Conditional Formatting for Version 7.0 (Portal)

About Conditional Formatting

Conditional formatting allows you to define a set of rules that alter the look of your chart as the data in your Microsoft Project source plan or Microsoft Excel source plan changes.

It goes beyond the dynamic color-coding feature described in the article at: Task Bars Tab-OnePager Pro.

The following elements can be defined by using conditional formatting rules:

• Shape (task bar or milestone symbol)
• Color
• Height
• Border
• Label Font
