Conditional Formatting doesn`t apply to Report

✭✭
edited 12/09/19 in Smartsheet Basics

Hi there,

I was playing arround with the conditional formatting and stumbled across a problem. I have some rules, based off the "Modified" column. When those rules are used on a custom column, it works just fine. If the rule is used on a system column (Modified in my case) it doesnt seem to apply the colours in the report. See the screenshot. (Report is left and sheet is right)

Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Cheers

 

edit: Just found out that if the format is being used for the whole row, the modified column will change its color in the report as well.

edit #2: Okay, this is weired. I want those colours inside my dashboard. For some reason, the coloures are visible on my dashboard but not in the report. That solves the problem then.
