Hi is there any formula that can detect color in google sheets?
For example if this cell fills color re then the other cell detects it and write the word "red".

I trying to apply conditional formatting on selected cells (A2:C2) with condition that if all aren't filled all selected cells must be in color red, once they all are filled then the color should be white.
I am using Google sheets, formula used is
You may try this custom formula within CF
=COLUMNS($A2:$C2)-COUNTBLANK($A2:$C2)<>COLUMNS($A2:$C2)

I want to highlight some cells like shown in the image, but unable to do in the data having filters applied. Tried using creating set of cells to be highlighted & then adding it on color card in Marks pane, but it is highlighting full rows. Any help is appreciated.
It is not value based formatting. Highlighted cell location would be same for any filters those are forecasted values from some calculations outside Tableau

In Google Sheets, is there a way to change not just the value but also the background color of a cell based on one of several possible values of another cell??
In other words,
If A1 is > 2, then B1 should be background color blue
I would like to change the background color of the cell E that are not 0:00. Here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NSBx87sWScwe2Vtp9FOcH3BupvPJ_jzISUeAk6gSBOM/edit?usp=sharing
What's the syntax to write this kind of matching?
Thanks in advance!
Google Sheets has a native solution for this.
Just right click on the cell(s) you want to change background color and choose Conditional formatting, it is the penultimate option.
Then a right side tab with the different formatting rules will open. There you can define the range, the rules and the formatting style.

I am looking to show color changes based on decreasing values. I want to add conditional formatting to a row (row 9) based on the cell directly prior (B9<C9 I want to be green, C9>D9 I want to be red). I want an entire row to be conditionally formatted to show growth/decline based on the cell directly before. Is this possible? How can I do so? enter image description hereI have the formulas I want to use, but I don't know how to accurate apply them to the entire Row 9 (as of now I'm manually inputting the 3 custom conditions on each cell)
You can use the following Custom Formulas from Range C9:9. Feel free to interchange the background color that will fit your needs.
For Green (Increasing), =C9>OFFSET(C9,0,-1)
For Red (Decreasing), =C9<OFFSET(C9,0,-1)
For Yellow (Same), =C9=OFFSET(C9,0,-1)
OFFSET() lets you shift the rows/columns based on a reference cell.
In this custom formulas, I get the previous cell value referenced to the current cell by setting the offset_columns to -1.

I am building a Google Sheets to check off vocabulary words taught during a school year. I need the cells in the first column (the vocabulary word) to change to green when taught, or red when not taught. I am recording the date taught in the adjacent row cells. For example B1 will turn red if there is no data in cells C1:AA1.
How do I do this?
Please format as much of B:B as relevant "standard" red then select B:B, clear any CF formatting from it and Format - Conditional formatting..., Custom formula is and:
=countblank(C1:AA1)<>25
Select green formatting of choice and Done.
