Excel - Conditional Formatting with symbols











up vote

favorite












I need to do formatting with flag in my table based on the next conditions:




  1. Format in Green when I'm above the average otherwize paint in Red.

  2. But if I'm above the average but have negative value, still format with red flag.


see my example



In the example I added we can see that in the CANDY column everything Ok.
In the SNACKS columns everything also OK, but in the DRINKS column OZI & MEIR are in green color although they are both have small values than the average.



How can I do this?
* I need to use symbols (or flags) and not fill all the cell with the color!

You can edit conditional formatting just make first "conditional format" by "icon set" of each row then go "manage rules" and "edit rules" and change as photo.enter image description here

  • I already tried this - It will not work if the the average is for example -2 and one user have value of -1, This value is bigger then the average but it is a negative value and therefore I want to symbolize it with the negative color.

  • Note that in the second column in your example you have average value of -2,38%. you fill with negative color 2 cells (-3%, -10%) and 2 cells with positive color (5%, -1.5%). But this is not what I want. I must to fill the cell with -1.5% also in negative color because it's has a negative value (despite its value is greater than the average).
