Grid & Row Formatting

jlevy2022

Hi,

 

I'm trying to format a module to make it more user friendly and am running into a few issues (see below).

 

1) I'd like to have an alternating row background, but for some reason I can't update the module grid settings. In Anapedia, it says the following:

Change an individual grid style

The default style for a grid on a dashboard is Classic, but it’s easy to change.

1. On the dashboard element menu, click Format > Grid Style.
2. Choose from Classic, Clear, Ruled, or Striped grid styles.

However, when I click Format I'm unable to see "Grid Style".

 

 

2) I'd like to have row breaks to distinguish sections of line items. This way the table is easier on the eyes to view and I don't have to create separate views for each section. The way I'm doing this is creating a blank line item as a "section break", and using conditional formatting to color the line as a clear break. I had 2 questions related to this:

 

- Is my method the best way to achieve this, or is there an easier way to achieve this (both from a quality and time investment perspective)?

- Is there a way to extend the conditional formatting across the entire line item? I can do this if I make the line item type "Number", but then there are 0's in every cell of the break line item.

 

Ex: using conditional formatting of a line item (text format), using a reference line item to show formatting on the section break.

 

Ex: If I set this section break as number, conditional formatting goes across the whole row but there's 0s in every cell.
