Created attachment 132537 [details] CF name mockup 1 In #105542 I was commended to make a propoposal A simple Name attached to the conditions. Or even a optional description (not showed in mockup) After this, showing the first condition its not really needed

Design team: what do you think?
To rephrase the request: * the dialog Manage Conditional Format identifies the conditions based on the type * varying properties of the type are not shown in this dialog; the user has to go into the edit mode * when more than one condition is used only the first is listed Example: A1:A10 ColorScale (in red-yellow-green) B1:B10 ColorScale (green-blue for <10 and magenta-pink for >10) Suggested solution is an additional property "name" that _can_ be used for identification of the condition (otherwise the old behavior is kept). Example: A1:A10 "TrafficLight" B1:B10 "G2B for <10, ugly colors above" If there is no restriction from the file format I think that makes sense (-> NEW). Alternatively, a tooltip or even better another column could show the key properties (we have plenty of space in this dialog). The more elaborated solution is a WYSIWWYG preview where ColorScale, for instance, is replaced by a symbolic representation of the colors. To show more than one condition the dialog needs to get closer to the edit box, ultimately making it obsolete. That means the conditions and properties for the selected range are shown (and edit) inline. If there is need for an overview of many ranges we could go with a tree rather than the current accordion style. On the other hand a lot of effort for information that is just a double-click away. The simple naming might be a good compromise.
I"m sorry but this will not be implemented. This just causes interoperability issues and I see no use. Conditional formats are not identified through the condition but through the range.
