Alternate column different background color

Is there a way to display alternate columns in different colors even if we apply expansion (e.g.   .tree , .children etc.)

Do you mean rows or columns?

We can achieve it through conditional formatting in Cube views

    It is for Columns 

    Can you give some sample codes to achieve alternate colors to the column when we use expansion

      The conditional formatting can be done based on various factors such as indent level  , member description , header display text etc

      For Ex: I used 2024.base in my columns which will populate all the months of 2024 and then used header display text to add colors to alternate months

      Formatting

      If (ColE2HeaderDisplayText Contains 'Apr') OR (ColE2HeaderDisplayText Contains 'Jun') OR (ColE2HeaderDisplayText Contains 'Aug') OR (ColE2HeaderDisplayText Contains 'Oct') OR (ColE2HeaderDisplayText Contains 'Dec') OR (ColE2HeaderDisplayText Contains 'Feb') Then

      BackgroundColor = Linen
      Else

      BackgroundColor = SkyBlue
      End if
