Hello,
I've set my conditional formatting for rows marked "delivered." However nothing is happening. Any help on what step I may be missing is greatly appreciated. I've attached a screenshot for reference. Thank you.
I'm experiencing a lag in conditional formatting. The rule is defined correctly but the formatting doesn't appear until the page is refreshed. Maybe that's the default behavior, I don't know I'm only at this a few months.
(Update) I just tested and when I try the conditional formatting it changes instantly when I'm checking/unchecking a box. However I just sat with someone this morning and when she changed the value the formatting did not appear without a page refresh. I am the owner of the sheets and my co-worker is viewing the data through a report, .... not the original sheet.
Thank you for your quick answer.
I am indeed the owner. I've refreshed as well. I've gone so far as to close out of Smartsheet and re-open it to make sure the rule is still there. It is there but doesn't show up.
You changed the format only for the task bar (Gantt view). You would need to change the background color of the cell. See screenshot. You'll want to change the circled one. You changed the underlined one.
Ah ha!!!!! That is it! Thank you so much!
Happy to help. I did the same thing (with much frustration) many times when I first started using Smartsheet. It wasn't until I started using Gantt view that I realized what was happening.
New to the community, but not new to Smartsheet. Anyone know when conditional formatting will include currency, percentage, and decimal functionality?
Using several hidden columns to filter rows and change font to bold and back. Works great, but can't get rows that change dynamically to change from coma format to dollar format with conditional formatting.
Anyone have a workaround? If I come up with something on my own, I'll post it here.
Edited...
Can you provide some screenshots with confidential/sensitive data removed, replaced with "dummy data", or blacked out?
If you can show an example of what you are trying to do along with an example of what is actually helping happening, we may be able to come up with a solution for you.
Hi Jeff,
Great idea! That would be a great addition to Smartsheet features.
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.
I'll get back to you if I figure out a workaround!
Have a fantastic day!

I'm having the same issue as Mike L. I've got conditional formatting set up on my owned sheet and the formatting works fine (and immediately), but on the report (based off the sheet) if I make a change that should be affected by the conditional formatting it doesn't change. After I save it doesn't change. Only after I refresh the page does it change.
Does sharing a sheet with edit or view rights immediately require the shared user to have a paid license, effectively making them a group member? This seems to be occurring. In contrast, can I confirm that sharing a link using the 'publish' feature will not require a license since the user is only accessing that specific…
I have provisional users who, under the legacy model, were unlicensed users with editing permissions for workspaces. I’ve now changed their role to "viewers" and assigned editing permissions to specific workspaces, aiming to maintain the same editing experience as before. However, they cannot edit fields within tasks or…
I'm trying to figure out how to delete an inactive Smartsheet account so I can use that email address for another account. The account I'm trying to delete was a free account with no system admin, so there's no one to contact. The AI bot with the Help Center told me my only option was to use the Smartsheet Community. Any…
