Conditional Formatting To Top Row Only

‎06-05-2024 11:40 AM

I have a table with a few different columns in it. Some of the columns are numeric while others are text based. Is it possible to change the formatting of only the numeric columns in the top-most row in this table? For example, add a "$" to the numeric columns but only for the first row in the table. 

 

Thank you in advance!

@srpeters the main question is if you sort this table by any other value the top row will change, and there is no way to find out how a visual is sorted to find out the top row.

@srpeters what defines the first row? Can you share an example?

Yes here is an example of what I want to accomplish:

Notice how only the top row of values and the totaled row has the "$". Is this formatting possible?
