I’d love the ability to add colours to specific columns, rather than applying strictly to rows. Ideally having the ability to do a combo would be great, like a group-rule in the “Color” settings.

For example, I’ve got a pricing list for parts used in a view where we track cost, freight, landed cost, markup, and retail cost. It would be nice to be able to highlight the retail cost column and the landed cost column so it’s much easier to visually find the key data.
