Conditional Formatting with color icons

PCC87

I have conditional formatting setup up to trigger color coding to identify if a project is on schedule, in risk of being late, a major concern, etc. I then created an additional column to have the RYG icons so that I could filter the rows by color. Is it possible to tie those two in together?

Basically I want Smartsheet to identify that a project is in a yellow state by the conditional formatting and then have it trigger the RYG icon to change accordingly. So that if my conditional formatting triggers the project to be in the yellow state that it automatically changes that icon column to the yellow icon so the project can be filtered automatically.

Hi,

Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment, but it's an excellent idea!

Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment

As a possible workaround, you could create a so-called helper column with a formula that would replicate the conditions as they are in the conditional formatting.

Would that work?

I hope that helps!

Have a fantastic week!

Best,
