How can you get the columns in a chart to display in different colors based on the value (often referred to as conditional formatting)? This video shows you how.

For written instructions of the steps in the video, refer to this article: thinkoutsidetheslide.com/conditional-formatting-for-excel-column-charts/

These videos are inspired by the work I do with business professionals to visually communicate financial results and analysis as well as the forum posts I answer from users on MrExcel.com.

In this video I show you how to create a column chart that has conditional formatting. You define the groupings based on value boundaries and the chart displays the columns in different colors based on which group that value is in. In the video I am using Excel 365 on Windows 10, and most modern versions of Excel will look very similar. If you like the video, please subscribe to the channel and add a comment below.
