Implement conditional formatting API. #67

Closed mysticfall closed 11 years ago

mysticfall commented 11 years ago

By conditional formatting, I mean a feature to provide user an ability to specify various renderer properties like color, font size, etc in terms of property value and the logical condition for which this value should be applied.

For example, user should be able to specify 'display cell texts in red which represents all Sales under $10,000 for this quarter'. And it should be done without relying on any vendor specific MDX statement or using such extended syntax like 'style' property(see #39) which is rather limited and hard to maintain.

Along with client side aggregation, it is one of the major features that was planned from the start of the project.
