Custom icons in actions or format rules
I have always wanted to use different icons in some of my actions, icons that made more sense or maybe in some format rules situations and I figured out that this is possible if you do some workaround.
- I create a virtual column and in the formula: "Text you want " & “
”
- Replace the bold pieces of text above to the ones you want, you need to use an icon or image url
- Set this VC as l****ong text and choose the option HTML
- Create an action and set this as inline and set this action to the virtual column you created
- You can ommit the system icon you want by just clicking in it 2x
See my example below:
If you want this in a format you can use this virtual columns with IFS() this way you can set the columns depending on certain conditions you want.
This way I use one custom icon in my column and I my app is more beautiful and customized.
I hope it may help somebody.
