Description pajaro 2017-01-26 14:34:41 UTC
MCF only shows the first condition, which is insufficient to identify them. 

For example, I have several ColorScale on the same sheet. It only shows ColorScale

Either allow naming them, or show all the conditions or a third better option I cant think of :)

Yeah, I noticed this when testing a ColorScale report. Let's set to NEW.
Comment 2 Markus Mohrhard 2017-02-18 02:39:03 UTC
There is not a better solution. Just use the range to identify the format. The shown condition is just a helpful addition.
Comment 3 pajaro 2017-04-02 10:42:40 UTC
Please, could you reconsider adding a description field to the conditions?

When Having a few more conditions than normal in multiple parts is really a mess of a dialog

This coupled with the fact that when you copy/paste cells with CF, multiple new CF are added, subdividing new cell ranges, the dialog gets reaaally messy

This is really a hindrance for CF in general

You could create a new report and include a proposal of how it should look.

I created a mockup in #107141

Although I thought this wasnt necessary... due to being a disagreement on this being useful and not on how it could look like
