About Conditional Formatting
1) Conditional formatting allows you to establish 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.
2) It goes beyond the dynamic color-coding feature described, for example, in this article: Task Bars Tab-OnePager Pro. 21.1.3.1-70
3) The following elements can be defined by using conditional formatting rules:
- Shape (task or milestone)
- Color
- Height
- Border
- Label Font
Conditional Formatting Controls
4) You can define these rules in either before or after you create new project view.
5) To create rules before you create a chart, use the Template Properties form by navigating to the Task Bars or Milestones tab and referencing the Conditional Formatting control group as shown below for a OnePager Pro Template form:
6) Clicking the Manage Rules... button in this control group accesses the Conditional Formatting Rules form where you can add, edit, and delete conditional formatting rules.
