Conditional Formatter

Conditional formatting occurs on any placeholder that contains a pipe character (|) after the colon (:). To invoke the Conditional Formatter explicitly use the name "conditional" or "cond". It can also be used implicitly when no name is provided.

Data Type	Syntax	Example
Number (Integer, Double, etc...)	{0:one|default}	{0} {0:item|items}
	{0} {0:item|items}	{0:no items|one item|many items}
	{0:negative|zero|one|default}	{0:negative items|no items|one item|many items}
bool	{0:true|false}	Enabled? {0:Yes|No}
string	{0:default|null or empty}	Text: {0:{0}|No text to display}
DateTime	{0:before|after} (as compared to Date.Now)	My birthday {0:was on|will be on} {0:MMMM d}
TimeSpan	{0:negative|positive}	My birthday {0:was {0} ago|will be in {0} from now}
	{0:negative|zero|positive}	My birthday {0:was {0} ago|is today!|will be in {0} from now}
object	{0:default|nothing}	Property: {0:{0}|(Nothing)}

Each parameter is separated by "|". The comparison is followed by a "?" and then the text. The last (default) entry does not contain a comparison nor a "?".

The following comparisons are supported:

• >=
• >
• =
• <
• <=
• !=

To combine comparisons, use "&" for AND or "/" for OR.
