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. 21.1.3.1-70

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

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

Conditional Formatting Controls

You can define conditional formatting rules either before or after you create new chart. To create rules before you create a chart, use the Template Properties form by navigating to the Task Bars or Milestones tab and navigating to the Conditional Formatting control group as shown below in the OnePager Pro Template Properties form:

Detailed articles are provided to assist you with using the Conditional Formatting feature for both OnePager Pro and Express below: Related Links) 11.0.1-70

The same Conditional Formatting control group is available in the OnePager Pro Chart Properties form as well as the Template form and Chart Properties form for OnePager Express.
