Worksheet Conditional Formating Like Excel

[mike mcneil]

I would like to format cell colors or patterns base on certain conditions being met. For example, if I were to query the floor area of a space or window/wall area ratio, I would like for the worksheet to change the color of the cell if it is over or under a limit that I would set. This is rather easy to set up in excel and it would be a great tool to have in the Worksheets. It would be able to provide quick graphic feed back of certain information.

Thanks

This would be really helpful for multi-type housing, like housing developments. Where you can color cells/sub-cells based on certain criteria (house type, floor area > x, coverage percentage < x, etc)..

Need this like yesterday.. Hopefully this has been considered after 4 years?

I don't think they will spend resources on that. It would be much smarted to create a decent transfer between excel and Vectorworks sheets as all those cool features are in Excel, no need to duplicate them ?

While that may be true, I assume it will be easier to create an in-house solution (something inside vectorworks) then to try and create a 'translator' between to programs? Maybe?
