Filtering columns by Color

Erica L.

Using either conditional formatting or manually selecting a background color for a cell, it would be great if we could then sort or filter a column by a specific color. There could be numerous use cases for this including "highlighting changes made to a specific column that we want to filter on instead of using the "Highlight Changes" button which shows "ALL" changes in the sheet."

I miss this feature so very much in Smartsheet. I find myself taking data to google sheet or excel just to do this (which ruins my efficiency!)

I 100% agree. Filtering by color would up my game immensely. I use a lot of color to keep track of statuses in large grids. Filtering by color would allow me to use color more and sort quickly.

I'm with the group on this one. I use the cell colors to quickly see info and it would be nice to filter by particular color(s)

I have conditional formatting that will colour-code cells based on specific dates and cannot filter or sort my sheet by cell colour.

I would like to be able to filter rows by a color of fill certain cells have. Often I'll set up a flag and used that to apply a conditional formatting to a cell. For example, if a cost over time increase, it gets flagged as red. I'd like to be able to sort out all "red" rows.

I'm sure this has been suggested before; however I do not see it and feel like it would be basic to implement.
