Default Cond. Format Data Bars of range based on values of another range

One way to do what you want is to duplicate your values in the Names column,
and use a custom format to display Small, Medium or Large. Something like:
[<=10]"Small";[<=20]"Medium";"Large"

Then, because the cells contain numbers, you can use Data Bars for them.

I want to format a column titled "Names" using <conditional formatting with
Data Bars based on the values of another columns titled "Values". How
can I
do that?
Ex:
Names Values
Small 10
Medium 20
Large 30
I need the databars to show on the columns Names rather than Values.
