Conditional formatting rules seem to miss function.

Hi,

Matrix.pngrules.png

 

Please advise, why i only get a red light? results are between 5 to 10 so i should get a yellow light .

I tried percentage instead of number with no luck.

Thanks.

Hi @Roinka ,

 

you can just change the 5 to the 0.05 and 10 to 0.1, use the number, because the value of you is 7.21%, that means 0.0721.

Hi,

 

This is a common misunderstanding with percentage value fields.  Although it looks like you have values between 0 and 100%, the acual value found in the measure is between 0 and 1.

 

In other words your scale for conditional formatting needs to be divided by 100 to work;

 

For example

 

0 = 0%

.05 = 5%

.1 = 10%

 

As soon as you alter the sale in your conditional formatting as above then you will get the desitred outcome.
