Conditional Formatting - Switch Application

[JamesTK]

Hi all,

My suggestion is for conditional formatting to have an option to move the rules/setup across different applications.

In my below example where I have CF applied to Font colour on my values, it'd be helpful to have a dropdown menu or something similar on the Font colour/application so I could quickly apply the same rules to background colour or add icons rather than set up the same rules all over again.

If anyone has found a quick workaround for this as a general issue though, please let me know!

It's easier to re-use the logic if you make a measure or visual calc. These can either directly output the colour value, or output a code (e.g. A, B, C) which can be consumed by normal conditional formatting rules. With the (A,B,C) method, you'd still need to re-create the rules, but it may be easier than creating the logic in full each time. Really, the formatting should allow you to set everything in one go, rather than needing multiple different rules.
