Adding the ability to do conditional formatting by column, similar to how I would flag a column for duplicates in Microsoft Excel.
I have found workaround using Bing copilot, but I would like to have that feature out of the box
This would be really useful to have immediate functionality for this. There is a workaround where you use a helper column that is a checkbox that gets ticked using a formula that looks for duplicates. You can then apply conditional formatting on the rows that have the checkbox ticked. https://community.smartsheet.com/discussion/73270/formula-for-duplicate-entries/p1

We need to analyze all items in each cell to see if there are any duplicates. If duplicate are found, then we have a problem as lot numbers should always be unique.
Any ideas are appreciated.

I noticed this the other day and tested Ctrl + M – it does not work. I submit ticket to Smartsheet support – they told me that’s expected behavior because it’s not currently available even though it still shows as keyboard shortcut in the menu🙄 and told me to submit new product idea. Please add this keyboard shortcut to…
Our sheets & workspaces require many people to have Admin level capabilities, which means that when someone requests access to a sheet or workspace, that email is sent to every Admin. This causes confusion and higher risk of no access granted (because people have learned to ignore the emails) or the wrong level of access…
