[ISO/IEC 29500-1 1st Edition]

18.3.1.28 dataBar (Data Bar)

Describes a data bar conditional formatting rule.

[Example:

In this example a data bar conditional format is expressed, which spreads across all cell values in the cell range, and whose color is blue.

<dataBar>
<cfvo type="min" val="0"/>
<cfvo type="max" val="0"/>
<color rgb="FF638EC6"/>
</dataBar>

end example]

The length of the data bar for any cell can be calculated as follows:

Data bar length = minLength + (cell value - minimum value in the range) / (maximum value in the range - minimum value in the range) * (maxLength - minLength),

where min and max length are a fixed percentage of the column width (by default, 10% and 90% respectively.)

The minimum difference in length (or increment amount) is 1 pixel.
