Hi all,
I have a matrix with several columns of data, that will have data bars on them. Is there a way to have a target line on this at a certain value, and to then have the conditional formatting of the data bar to say if < target, red, else blue? My table looks like the below.
For an example, for the first column, say the target was 2000, I would like all the top data bars to be red, except the bottom that would be blue as its over the target amount?
Many thanks,
Mike
Hi @MikeLanglois,
Current data bar conditional formatting seems does not support advanced configuration based on the dynamic target.
Perhaps you can submit an idea for these requirements or try to use script based on visuals(R, Python) to manually plot these graphs.

@MikeLanglois Not aware of a way to do that. You can only have different colors for positive and negative data bars.
