Deactivate Outline of selected Matrix Value

Hello everyone, 

 

i am wondering if there is a solution, which stops the outline of the selected value in a matrix.

I would like to have the selected cell highlighted in a color, but not to be outlined, as in the picture below.

Can the highlighted color be changed?

Hi,

While you cannot completely remove the outline, you can change its color to transparent, making it less visible.

  • Go to Format Visual > Grid.
  • Find Outline color and set it to transparent (or the same color as the background).

or you can use Use Conditional Formatting for Background Color.

Thanks,

Bhavin

Hi, thank you for the fast reply.

 

Yes thats what i already did.

What I am trying to do now is have the selected value in the matrix highlighted in color. However, what bothers me is that the cell is also underlined. My question is whether it is possible to configure it so that the selected cell is only highlighted with a color, while the borders remain invisible? Can the color the cell is highlighjted in be changed? Please see the attached image.
