Overview
1) Because Conditional Formatting Rules can become complex, OnePager provides a means to show the colors and shapes in the legend item text for task/milestones involved in conditional formatting rules.
2) Entries are added to the Legend, as is shown in this article, whenever a conditional formatting rule is applied to a task/milestone color or shape when the Legend is displayed in the chart.
3) You always have the option to subsequently decide to edit these legend-item text item entries after the rules are applied to the chart.
4) The example that follows shows how the Legend is handled when conditional formatting rules are used with a simple Microsoft Excel source plan.
Example
1) Suppose you have the Microsoft Excel source plan shown below where the Phase field is used to represent the project’s Phases.
2) Highlighted below are four tasks of which three are in Phase THREE and one is in Phase END.
3) In this example, suppose you want to represent these four tasks in black with a left pointing arrow symbol.
Example Microsoft Excel Source Plan
4) Here is the proposed Microsoft Excel source plan:

Basic Chart From Microsoft Excel Source Plan
2) When the basic chart is created with round-robin color assigned from the Phase field, it looks like this:

Conditional Formatting Rules
3) To implement the desired results for tasks in Phases THREE and END, you can create conditional formatting rules that look like this:

Conditionally Formatted Chart
4) When the chart is created, the highest priority rule shown above is applied, and the four tasks highlighted in the Microsoft Excel source plan have their rules applied.
5) Thus, tasks I, J, K, L, and Q shows the results of applying the highest priority conditional formatting rule as shown here:

5) Notice that the legend entry for Phase THREE shows that the Not O conditional formatting rule was applied to the tasks that have the black reverse arrow task shapes.
