This setting will be available if you have added valid data to the Reference Value field.

If this toggle is disabled, conditional formatting will apply color fill and opacity settings to each shape based on how close its Value is to the minimum and maximum values among all shapes in the layer. Enable this toggle to use the reference value to determine formatting rules of each shape. This will be useful if you need to compare each shape (e.g. country, region or area) against their own benchmarks, KPIs or other metrics.

Enabling this toggle will reveal Reference Value Color and Reference Value Opacity settings which will be applied to shapes that have matching Value and Reference Value. The further the shape’s Value is from its Reference Value, the more its color and opacity will be blended with Min Fill Color and Min Fill Opacity (or Max Fill Color and Max Fill Opacity if it exceeds the reference value).

You can further customize the reference value behavior with the following settings:

• Value Aggregation: Choose which aggregation method is used for all Values within each shape to determine the value which is used for conditional formatting.
• Reference Value Aggregation: Choose which aggregation method is used for all Reference Values within each shape to determine the reference value for conditional formatting.
• Color Scale: Select between relative or absolute scale, which affects the relation between Value and Reference Value when applying conditional formatting.
