[Solved] Format cells with a "color scale" like google docs?

Post by ssateneth »

Does anyone know how I can make openoffice calc do the conditional formatting that google spreadsheets can? I can select some number of cells, conditional formatting, and it lets me format the cells to a color gradient based on the values being high or low or somewhere in the middle, automatically with no fiddling of setting colors to certain value breakpoints. I can't seem to figure out how to do that with openoffice calc. Anyone know?

There is no built in way to have a color gradient as conditional formatting in Calc as far as I know.
