Trying to set up conditional formatting on a Lobby element so that a numeric value (like Balance) turns red when it exceeds another value (like Budget), but the formatting doesn't seem to apply anywhere visible — what's the trick to the Formatting tab?

Answer

Apply the conditional formatting rule directly on the mapped column whose displayed value you actually want colored (e.g. the 'Balance' column), not on some other mapped column used only to hold the true/false condition result. Formatting rules color the specific mapped column they're attached to — attaching the rule to an unrelated boolean/condition column won't visually color the value column you're trying to highlight.
