See and filter rows that match a highlight rule

Click a rule card in the Conditional Highlights panel to turn on focus mode: matching rows keep the highlight and the rest are dimmed. Use it to check exactly which rows a rule affects before you share a View. For creating rules, see Highlight cells and rows with colour.

Read the focus mode banner

  • Matching rows show the rule's highlight. Other rows are dimmed.
  • A banner above the grid shows the count, for example "Highlighting 14 of 200 rows for brand is 'BasicWear'". For a Color Scale it reads Color scale on and the column name.

To leave focus mode, click the same card again, or click the X at the right of the banner.

Filter to the matching rows

For a Condition Rule (not a Color Scale), the banner has a filter button (tooltip Filter to matching rows). Click it to show only the matching rows. The banner then reads Showing 14 of 200 rows · Filtered by and the rule, with a 3-dot menu and a close button that removes the filter. This filter is temporary and doesn't add a pipeline task.

The 3-dot menu offers:
