Can two color conditionals be applied at the same time to a single indicator?

Yes. Jestor indicators accept two simultaneous color conditionals — one for the data and another for the background — letting you, for example, turn the number red when it's below a value and the background a different color when it's above another value, all on the same indicator.

Why does having two conditionals on one indicator help you read data faster?

An indicator with a single color rule already helps highlight values outside the expected range, but combining two conditionals — one for the text and another for the background — lets you communicate more visual nuance at once, with no need for two separate indicators taking up dashboard space.

How to configure two color conditionals in Jestor?

  1. Access the indicator's style editor.
  2. Set the first color conditional for the data — for example, red when the value is below a defined threshold.
  3. Set a second color conditional for the indicator's background, with its own independent rule.
  4. Both conditionals work at the same time, reflecting the indicator's current value according to the configured formula.

Conditional Applies to
Data conditional Color of the number displayed on the indicator
Background conditional Color of the indicator block's background
