== How to conditionally format a chart or change the formatting of a chart’s plotted points (markers, bar fill color, etc.) based on the values of the points, can be done by using VBA to change the individual chart elements or values, but the code must be run whenever the data changes to maintain the formatting.The purpose is get our charts with different colored points depending on the points’ values, and no need to resort macros: -
1- click on line or bar to makes a simple unformatted chart.
-
2- the conditional formatting of worksheet ranges requires formulas to determine which cells should take on the formatting.
In the same way, we will use formulas to define the formatting of series in the charts.So, we will replace the original plotted data in the line and bar charts with several series, one for each set of conditions of interest., i.e.,50-100 (red),100 -105 (blue) and105-120 (green).
-
3- The formatting limits are inserted into rows1 and2.
The header formula in cell C3, which is copied into D3:E3, is [ =C1&"
