Gridlines in Excel Chart
How do I hide the grid lines in a excel chart. I have created a scatter plot and now want to remove its grid lines. I'm using Excel 2016 for Mac.

I'm on a Mac, though using a more modern version of Excel. Unless I'm totally mistaken, I believe it's similar in the 2016 version. Perhaps the pictures below can lead you to the solution you seek.
Find the icon looking like this and press it.

Thank you. The second method worked. I don't have a plus sign at the top right from the chart. I clicked on the grid line and hit delete.
Now, how do I get the grid lines to show if I want to show them again?

1. In the Chart Design tab, click on Add Chart Elements
2. Select Gridlines and play around it to show gridlines!
Hope this helps
