Remarks
The conditional formatting feature allows highlighting critical information, identifying trends and exceptions, and comparing data.
To apply style format rules to a TreeList, use the FormatRules collection. Each rule in this collection is specified by the TreeListFormatRule object. It identifies a column that provides values for the current rule (TreeListFormatRule.Column), the rule type (FormatRuleBase.Rule) and other options.
The collection of format rules can be customized at design time and in code. To customize this collection at design time, you can use the Style Format Rules page of the Tree List Designer, or the Format Rule Collection Editor invoked by clicking the ellipsis button for the FormatRules property.
If the TreeListOptionsMenu.ShowConditionalFormattingItem property is enabled, an end-user can customize the format rules collection at runtime using the column’s context menu.
