Is there a way to automatically apply a color format to a parent row only.

Hi @Tinka Louw

I hope you're well and safe!

I usually add a so-called helper column called Level with the formula below, and then you can use it to identify parents and use it for conditional formatting and more.

=IF(COUNT(CHILDREN([Task Name]@row)) > 0, COUNT(ANCESTORS()) + 1)

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!
