# New-ConditionalFormattingIconSet

## SYNOPSIS

Creates an object which describes a conditional formatting rule a for 3,4 or 5 icon set.

## SYNTAX

```text
New-ConditionalFormattingIconSet [-Range] <Object> [[-ConditionalFormat] <Object>] [-Reverse] [<CommonParameters>]
```

## DESCRIPTION

Export-Excel takes a -ConditionalFormat parameter which can hold one or more descriptions for conditional formats; this command builds the defintion of a Conditional formatting rule for an icon set.

## EXAMPLES

### EXAMPLE 1

```text
PS\> $cfRange = [OfficeOpenXml.ExcelAddress]::new($topRow, $column, $lastDataRow, $column)
PS\> $cfdef = New-ConditionalFormattingIconSet -Range $cfrange -ConditionalFormat ThreeIconSet -IconType Arrows
PS\> Export-Excel -ExcelPackage $excel -ConditionalFormat $cfdef -show
```
