Formatting list views

You can customize the display of views in lists without changing the list data by adding formatting.

Anyone who can create and manage views in a list can access view formatting. To create a custom view, select All items > Format current view.

Highlight alternating rows by selecting Edit row styles.
Select the edit icon to choose a highlight color. You can also adjust the font size, change the font style and add a border by selecting More styles.

With conditional formatting, you can highlight rows based on rules.

With view formatting, you can highlight rows that meet a condition.

This example shows conditional formatting with the status column set equal to "Blocked".

You can edit and delete previously created rules by going to Manage rules and selecting the ellipses(...) next to the name of the rule.
