I would like to color-highlight the absolute values in NumbersBars.
Values less than 100 = blue
Values between 101 and 500 = yellow
Values over 500 = green (examples)

Is this possible?

This can be done by using this Text Coloring Method:

Thank you for the fast response.
I have tried various settings, but unfortunately I did not get the desired result (as you can see on the attached pic).

In line "Column 1 Actual Volume Compare Threshold" I have entered the values 50, 300, 500

The setting "Based on Volume - Actual" shows a very unsatisfactory result (pic#)
The setting "Based on Dominant AskVolBidVol - Actual" only displays the dominant page correctly (pic#2).

My goal is to get a simple color representation of both sides, without any comparison.
For example: If I have Bid = 60 and Ask = 350 then Bid should be green and Ask yellow. That's it.
If this should be possible could you show me the individual necessary settings. It would be very helpful for me, because the big amount of text almost kills you esp. if you not an English native speaker

We have to add this. It currently does not exist.

Also yes the documentation is extensive but that is merely a manifestation, of the enormous amount of functionality requested, and all of the questions in relation to the functionality. So it all has to be documented clearly and users do need to rely on the documentation.

Many Thanks.

What do you think the feature could be added?

With regard to the enormous text, this was not a criticism of mine. I am aware that the Numbers Bars is an extensive tool and requires a great deal of explanation.
In my opinion, it would be helpful to support this with much more pictures and their settings.

Pls take a look to my pic

In Release you mentioned the Coloring method, but this is not what I was loooking for.

I'd like to have the possibility to color all values without any comparising of dominant side or percentage or ...

If bid side is 600 make it red and the ask side on the same level is only 75 make this value blue. That's it. No comparising...

Maybe this is possible but at the moment I can't see it. If it is possibility please be so kind and tell me the settings.

We apologize. We had mistakenly thought this was released. It has not been. The new coloring method is named: Based on Separate Ask Volume Bid Volume - Actual

It has not yet been released.
