Hiya. Love the pivot tables - I can already see how I can use this to replace some of my complicated bodges. A request - it’s great that you can do colour formatting on tables by rows, but now we have pivot tables is there a way of having colour formatting rules by ‘cell’ value?

I’d use a pivot table to showcase resourcing - i.e. rows of weeks and columns of people and the cells showing number of days scheduled. Would be absolutely amazing to have different coloured cells to pull out under / over utilisation.

Thanks!

Thanks for the great suggestion @abathagte

It’s certainly something we’re looking into

It’s clear how incredibly valuable that would be

+1 to this and if it could also be extended to regular tables too that would be great
