Change table gridlines and colors in Numbers on Mac
You can change the look of a table by changing its outline, showing or hiding gridlines, add borders and color to cells, and using alternating row colors.
Open a spreadsheet, click the table, then in the Format sidebar, click the Table tab.
Do any of the following:
Change the outline: In the Table Outline section of the sidebar, use the controls to change the line type, thickness, and color.
Change the gridlines: In the Gridlines section of the sidebar, click the buttons to show or hide gridlines from the table body, from the header rows and columns, and from footer rows.
You can change the border and background of any selection of table cells that don’t use categories.
Change the cell borders: In the Border section of the sidebar, click a border layout button below Border to choose which borders you want to format. Click the Border Styles pop-up menu, then choose a border style. Or, use the controls below the menu to define your own style.
Tip: To select multiple borders, click a border layout button, then Command-click additional borders.
