Up/Down Arrow Colours
Hi,
I wondered if there was a way to swap the up and down arrow colours?
e.g. I’m applying the arrows to a spend profile and green should represent a down trend.
Thanks,
Del

@Del Horne - not possible at the moment. A couple workaround suggestions,
- Use the gray arrows and conditional formatting to turn the cell Green/Red based on Down/Up respectively
- Use the Gray arrows in conjunction with the harvey balls. Use formulas to make the ball auto associate to the arrow. =IF([ArrowColumn]="down", "Green", IF([ArrowColumn]="up", "Red"))

Hi @Del Horne
To add to M Underbrink's excellent advice/answer,
You can also use symbols by using UNICHAR, CHAR or Emojis.

Great resource that Paul Newcome put together
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Thanks @M Underbrink – would the conditional formatting pull through as data in a dashboard?

@Del Horne - the conditional formatting would show on reports on Dashboards (it's an option when formatting the report widget to preserve cell formatting).
