Changing spacing in grid lines in Numbers

Does anyone know how to change the grid line spacing in the new Numbers?? The default spacing is much wider and higher than the old, and I can't see any way to change it other than manually reducing each one line by line. I have about 50 lines... that would be way too tedious!!

Hi tipsam,
If you click on the circle in the upper left to choose the entire table you will see 3 object handles. the one at the middle bottom will squeeze your rows when you drag it upwards.
If you have trouble with text not being centered in the cells check out the text inset in Layout.
Ciao,
quinn

Change Color from grid lines in Flash 2D Line Chart

Hi,
does anybody know how to change the color from the grid lines in 2D Line Chart?
The color is always black (000000), I will use gray (CCCCCC).
I can use a custom XML. Can you give me an example please???
Where can I read something about the possible XML-Tags in Custom XML for Charts?
Best regards
Simona

Simona,
anychart.com has XML reference you can use for the charting engine in APEX.
Try using custom XML and sticking this inside the grid > values tag:
<lines color='0xCCCCCC' />- Marco

Grid lines in Numbers

Just started using Numbers. The grid lines on my spreadsheets I've created are barely visible. How do I darken the gridlines? I've tried using Inspector in the tool bar, but have had no luck.

in the user guide located on the apple support main website, chapter four has a section called "Formatting table cell borders" which explains all the basics.

Grid lines in numbers, how do you switch them on and off?

I am having trouble getting the grid lines to show in numbers, the format has grid lines highlighted in blue but switching this off or on has no effect on grid lines in the sheet

Hi algebra,
I got an email notification of your reply, but this page has not yet updated. This forum software sometimes is out of sync with the emails.
Numbers 3.2
Click on the 'bullseye' top left of the table to select the whole table
In the format panel on the right of the Numbers window, click on Cell
Border > Line style, Width (I prefer 1pt), Colour (I prefer Black) , border pattern (I prefer to set them all the same, see below)

Align Grid Lines in chart

Hi ......
I am generating a line chart using an xml file...I am setting
the interval as 250 on X Axis.....
And I am using a repeated square image as a background.
Intention is to have that square aligned inside the grid lines.....
The problem is that the chart data is dynamic... and when the
no of plottable values are more , then it takes the grid interval
automatically as 500 and not 250 as the chart gets displayed in the
same width.........Due to which the grid squares change and the
alignment to the image gets disturbed.......
I need to set the width of the chart based on the number of
values in the xml in such a way that the grid always comes at 250
and the image is properly aligned in the grid lines......
Please help me in this regard....
Or suggest me some other way to achieve the same.....

I know that I can control the origin of the rulers, but when I change that, the grid lines do not change, which is quite annoying.
Depends on which version of Illustrator you are using.
In recent versions turn on global rulers, then change the rulers origin in order to position the grid.

Grid lines in Illustrator

What determines the origin point of the grid lines in Illustrator?
I know that I can control the origin of the rulers, but when I change that, the grid lines do not change, which is quite annoying. I know also that I can change the color and major and minor intervals in the gridlines.
But how do I change the origin?
Puzzled... Any tips would be really appreciated!

Grid Lines for each cell

In EXCEL it was easy to add gridlines (borders around each cell). Is there an easy way to add grid line in Numbers so they will print in the final document?

The *Numbers User Guide* is full of useful infos.
Just an example :
We may also do that with *Inspector > Table* .

How to print a report without row numbers or grid lines?

Is there a way to print a Discoverer report without row numbers or grid lines?
Thank you.
Blake

Hi Blake
You're not doing anything wrong.
The settings made when you use Tools | Options | Sheet are global settings that are only applied to new workbooks and worksheets going forwards. These have no impact on existing worksheets or even the one you currently have open. This is because Discoverer does not know whether your original worksheets were setup in a certain way deliberately as opposed to inheriting the global settings as they were at that time. What this also means, reading between the lines, is that these settings must then be stored within the worksheet itself, and this is exactly what happens.
Thus, to edit an existing worksheet's settings you need to open the worksheet, right-click in the sheet and from the popup select either Format Table or Format Crosstab depending upon the type of worksheet you are working with. After making any necessary changes you will need to save or re-save the workbook in order for those settings to be remembered for the next time.
Best wishes

Numbers spreadsheets show very faint grid lines

Hope someone out there can help with this strange problem. I can only se the grid lines on the numbers basic spreadsheet with great difficulty. It's the same for most other templates expect the brown one which show up fine for some reason! I've recalibrated the Mac to ensure colours are good, but can't find a way in numbers to make the grid lines darker. Can anyone help? It must be a problem for me only as my partner uses this Mac with no problems in his spreadsheets!!!

Hmm, if that wasn't a typo and you really meant "this Mac" (as you typed), not "his Mac" then I don't know why yours would be different from your partner's unless you or your partner changed border colors/thickness as some point.
You can set the cell border line thickness and color in two places. One is on the toolbar and the other is in the Table inspector . It would probably be easier to understand if you read about it in the User's Manual rather than me trying to give step by step instructions here.

I have a Mac mini Snow Leopard. In Numbers the grid lines are so faint that they are barely visible. Please could someone help me sort out this problem.

The User Manual has this:
Formatting Table Cell Borders
You can change the line thickness and color of table cell borders. Or you can hide the border of any cell.
To format table cell borders:
1 Select the cell border segments you want to format.
2 Use the controls in the format bar or in the Table inspector.
Click to choose a stroke color.
Click to choose a stroke style.
Click to choose a line thickness.
Stroke pop-up menu: Lets you choose a stroke style. Choose None to hide borders.
Line thickness: Controls the thickness of the stroke.
Color well: Lets you choose a stroke color.
When you click the color well in the format bar, a color matrix appears. Select a color by clicking it in the matrix, or click Show Colors to open the Colors window for additional color options.
When you click the color well in the Table inspector, the Colors window opens.

Just setting up iCloud on my iMac, my problem is when trying to sign out/off from iCloud it comes up with a verification code that is being sent to my land line, I'd changed the numbers in my Apple ID and they show as changed but the land line number stil

Just setting up iCloud on my iMac 10.9.2, my problem is when trying to sign out/off from iCloud it comes up with a verification code that is being sent to my land line, I'd changed the numbers in my Apple ID and they show as changed but the land line number still shows as number that the verification code is being sent, I prompt "Don't have access to this phone" and that's no help at all. The only way I can sign out /off from iCloud is to uncheck everything that I wanted to keep in the cloud????
Thanks in advance for any help.

Skip the iCloud sign in for now.
Once you reach the home page, go to settings and sign out of FaceTime and Messages. This should also sign you out of iCloud.
Go to iCloud in settings and sign in with the correct Apple ID.
If that does not work
Skip the iCloud sign in
Go to Apple ID.apple.com and sign in
Change your Apple ID to the old one
Delete iCloud account on your device with the old Apple ID and the same password.
Go back to the website, change your Apple ID back to the current one. You will receive an email to verify the account. Verify first.
Sign into iCloud on your device with the correct Apple ID and password

In iPhoto '11 you can only display two lines below the thumbnails of your photos when you browse an event or an album, the titles and the ratings. The title will be truncated, if it does not fit into the single line. From the iPhoto help:
To show title and rating information below photos:
Click to select Photos in the Source list.
Choose View, and then choose the information you want to view:
