Conditional Formatting on Table

I have a status column in table and I am trying to do the conditional formatting on this status column. However, it doesn't show me conditional formatting option when I click on the arrow next to the filed in Values section.

 

Am I missing anything?

Okay - so here is the trick to get the conditioal formatting visible.

 

1. Choose any aggregate fucntion on numeric column - like sum or average

2. Conditional formatting will be visible - you can format based on condition

3. Turn of the agrregate fucntion

Is it a numeric field? I do not believe that conditional formatting is available for text fields.

It is a calculated column which can have a value as 1 and 0. The data type is Whole Number.
