Draw eyes to what matters by adding on-screen colour rules to any text, number, date, or other plain field—no formulas needed.

See issues at a glance

• Deadlines and risk – overdue dates, negative balances, or high‑risk scores surface instantly—no extra fields.
• Unexpected values – flag totals that spike, scores that drop, or anything outside the range you set.
• Personal touch – colour‑highlight key clients, shade equipment types by category, or simply make large collections easier to scan.

Get started

1. Open the field – Collection → Configure → Fields → edit or add a field → Formatting tab.
2. Add a rule – choose a colour, then pick field → operator → value.
   Operators: is blank / is not blank / is / is not / contains / does not contain / starts with / ends with.
3. Stack logic (optional) – add AND/OR conditions inside a rule or drag multiple rules to set priority. Kinabase applies the first match.
4. Set a fallback (optional) – a rule without a condition becomes the default colour.
5. Save – the collection updates instantly; new records follow the same rules.

Turn every collection into a quick‑read dashboard. Spot issues sooner, guide workflows, and keep data crystal clear—try conditional formatting on a test field today.
