Default White Gridlines
I have the oddest problem, could not find anything like it online. After some recent update to Windows (i think it was after that) my Automatic Gridline - the default for Excel has turned to "white" ...
NikolinoDE I am sorry I did not mention the version etc. but this was my first post, and there were no summarized guidelines.
I am using Microsoft® Excel® for Microsoft 365 MSO (Version 2110 Build 16.0.14527.20234) 32-bit
However, your response was of no help, as the solution you provided is the same I already mentioned in my question.
My issue is I never set the Automatic to White, and I do not know how it happened, it is most likely due to some Windows or Office Update. It was all working fine till some week ago. And then the existing, and new Excel documents all turned blank as they were all set to Automatic and the Automatic was turned to a Default of White.
Please help me switch this back permanently, as changing every worksheet is a real pain. Excel does not even let me select the Entire Workbook.
Based on this quite old thread I lost the dark automatic color gridlines when I start Excel | MrExcel Message Board default Automatic color is based on Windows settings. I don't know where they are now, you may try to dig in this direction.
- thanks for the guidance, my issue is fixed, my brightness and contrast were distorted due to some automatic update.
Great to know you sorted this out, thanks for the update
