Apply gradient color to a whole row

[Butanium]

I know I can use a gradient for a column but I'd like that each row is colored based on the color of the second row

Conditional formatting with color scales, icon sets or data bars only works on the cells with the values; there is no way to extend it to other cells.

You'd have to create multiple rules of type 'Use a formula to determine which cells to format', one for each color.

For example:

• Select the rows you want to format.
• As an example, I will assume that you selected rows 2 and down, and that you want to color them based on the value of column B.
• The active cell in the selection should be in row 2 (the top row of the selection.
• Select Conditional Formatting > New Rule...
• Select 'Use a formula to determine which cells to format'.
• Enter the formula =$B2=10
• B is the column you want to look at, and 2 is the row of the active cell; 10 is the value to check.
• Click Format...
• Activate the Fill tab.
• Select red.
• Click OK, then click OK again.
• Repeat, but with formula =$B$2=20 and a lighter color red, etc.

That's too bad, in my case this manual set won't be suitable. Anyway, thanks for the reply
