Google Sheets is structured to make adding and evaluating data sets easy, but you can always customize it to make large sets of values more presentable. One way to do this is to add alternating colors to rows and columns, which can instantly improve the appearance of your spreadsheet.
Alternative colors on your spreadsheet in Google Sheets
In this post, we'll explain what alternating colors mean and how to add them to Google Spreadsheets.
When you apply alternating colors, your spreadsheet will instantly look a lot better than the original layout. Each row or column is distinct from adjacent rows or columns, making it easy for readers to view and analyze the data you've added to your spreadsheet.
You can customize the alternating colors applied to rows or columns in your spreadsheet with colors of your choice. Adding an alternating color to your spreadsheet can also help isolate table data from other data sets that you have entered. This allows you to create different data sets in your spreadsheet and apply alternating colors to distinguish them from other elements.
