Hey, I would like to have the values in my table coloured differently depending on some condition.
So e.g. if the value is negative - show it in red.
If it's positive -show it in green

Any ideas/examples how to implement such simple feature?

The way to do this would be to create some custom styles for the table, then use the table's SetStyles function to change the styling based on some condition. You can see how I implemented this in the gist below. In this case it changes the background colour to red when the name of the city is Cairo.

Note: there is a table provided by Lip Gloss now that's great to work with and easier to style than the original solution I provided as the answer to this question. Here's the API and links to the example usage.

In the example, the whole row style changes based on the condition and only when it is selected. I was wondering if there is a way to change the style for just one cell and without the need for it to be selected. So in the example if any row has a cell with a value "Cairo" the word will have a different color. Is this possible with the Table bubble? or a custom implementation would be necessary?

Hi! I will take a look at this tomorrow - I've been in Lip Gloss table land for a while now, so need to do a quick refresh on the current bubbles rendering for tables

There is a PR I made to address this. Please take a look to see if it helps with your concern.
