Conditional Formatting in PowerPoint

‍

With OfficeReports, you have the ability to apply Excel's conditional formatting in PowerPoint. This means you can change the fill and font colors in PowerPoint shapes, tables, and charts based on the values they contain, making it easy to create e.g. heatmaps. It is also possible to show 'Color-Driven' icons in tables and charts. This means you can show e.g. different arrow shapes in tables and charts depending on the fill and font color in Excel.

Here a few examples of slides using conditional formatting:

‍

OfficeReports links Excel cells to shapes, tables, and charts in PowerPoint. When you establish this link, you can ensure that the shapes, tables, and charts in PowerPoint match the background and/or font colors of the cells in Excel.

OfficeReports brings an Excel workbook into PowerPoint, showing it in a special area. If you haven't set up the special formatting in Excel yet, you can even do it directly in PowerPoint.
