Conditional Format of rows

Dear all

 

I have a matrix with 50 rows.  I would like to format selective rows which satisfies certain critieria - say, the values exceeding 1000 or row name containing certain text.

When I do it through conditional formatting in "specific columns" option, it formats only the values but not the rows.  Under the dropdown in "specific columns" in format pane, it list only the values column.

How to format both the row and values?  Pls help

From your screenshot it looks like you might want to switch your visual from matrix to table. 
In Matrix you can not highlight row headers using conditional formatting. In Table you'll still need to use conditional formatting on every column, but it will give you the desired result

Thanks for the suggestion.  I would like to keep it in matrix format and trying to apply to rows.

I am able to format the values column only through format pane.  But I would like to format the rows also.
