Enhancement - Blink in Conditional Formatting
In Excel for Mac, it would be helpful if there was an option in Conditional Formatting that would cause the data in a cell to BLINK when conditions are met. This would be used to draw a users attention. It could be implemented by a checkbox in the Format Cells --> Font dialog. I think a default of 1 blink per second would be adequate but you could also include the option for the user to control the blink frequency (Nice to have but not critical). This option may exist in Excel for Windows but it does not seem to be in Excel for Mac. My current version is 16.70 (23021201)
It doesn't exist in Excel for Windows either, and probably for a good reason: it would irritate lots of users and might be dangerous to some.
But you can request it on the Excel Feedback Portal
