The Multiple Operations tool can use any number of formulas, but only one or two variables. The result is the outcome of the formulas using each variable. Once the variable values are created, you use the Multiple Operations tool to specify the formulas you are using, as well as the original values altered by the variables. It is created by entering variables-alternative values-for one or two of the original values. The first array contains the original or default values and the formulas applied to them. To use the Multiple Operations tool, you need two arrays of cells. Although the tool is not listed among the functions, it is really a function that acts on other functions, allowing you to calculate different results without having to enter and run them separately. Instead, the Multiple Operations tool creates a formula array: a separate set of cells that give all the alternative results for the formulas used. Unlike a scenario, the Multiple Operations tool does not present the alternate versions in the same cells or with a drop-down list. That's all - now the conditional formatting rule is activated for the entire column.Like scenarios, Data > Multiple Operations is a planning tool for “what if” questions. Set the cell range to apply the conditional formatting for an entire column, enter "A:A".īack in the "Manage Conditional Formatting" window, select OK again. Set the cell format to apply if condition is true Set the condition (in my example: apply format if cell value > 3, alternatively, select "Formula is" instead of "Cell value" and add your formula in the adjacent field). In the "Manage Conditional Formatting" window, select Add To set the conditional formatting for an entire column in LO Calc Version 7, proceed as follows: Update for LibreOffice 7 (tested with 7.1.3) So, LibreOffice translated the conditional format defined for the complete table in single rules for each of the cells automatically. You will see there's a conditional formatting rule defined for that cell, with Formula is as condition type, and $B4 > 2 as formula. To double-check what LibreOffice / OpenOffice did with your table, select a single cell, for example A4, and select Menu Format -> Conditional Formatting -> Select Menu Format -> Conditional Formatting ->Įnter as Formula $B1 > 2 and set the format to be applied if condition matches (for example, ugly red background) '$D5'), OpenOffice will adapt it for every selected cell.įor example: You want to conditionally format the following table based on the value of the second (B) column (format should be applied if value is greater than 2): Now, if your formula uses a cell address with fixed column (e.g. Just select all the cells that should get conditionally formatted, and use a formula-based rule. You don't need to select the cell that holds the value that should be relevant for conditional formatting.
