Conditional Formatting Icons
Hi all,
I'm surprised I have to post this, as I thought it would be standard with PBI.
I have a table with one column and all I require is conditional formatting on one specific number, that will apply a coloured arrow to the table, instead of any number.
I need the following: Up, Down and Double-arrowed horizontal arrow (as in no change), available in Red, Amber and Green (9 in total). Similar to these in Wingdings, but I'm not really fussy as to the style.
Yet I go into conditional formatting > Icons and there are only Green & Red Up and an Amber pointing to the right.
This seems basic stuff, am I missing a simple way of doing this?
I'm not concerned with what visualization is used, so long as I can see the arrow.
Thanks,
Rich
