People using Google Sheets will now have more powerful conditional formatting options. This launch will add the following features:

§ Ability to add gradient conditional formatting rules (e.g. green -> orange, where the lowest numbers are shaded green and the highest are shaded orange, with gradient shades in between)

§ More style choices like bolding, striking through, and italicizing text based on conditional formatting rules

§ A new look for the conditional formatting editing pane

§ Import/export of color scale conditional formatting

Conditional formatting can be added by highlighting the relevant cells and selecting Format > Conditional formatting from the menus.
