How to: Apply Conditional Formatting to Grid Cells using the Value Format Condition
- 2 minutes to read
The Value format condition (FormatConditionValue) allows you to compare dimension/measure values with predefined static values.
This example demonstrates how to apply conditional formatting to Grid cells whose values are greater than, less than or between the specified values.
