Default Grid lines options

Hi!

Is there any way to make the Bars grid lines (not the ones in between) either thicker or just change their color altogether? Im kinda having a hard time distinguishing the Bars grid lines from the ones in between. Hopefully i can change the color to a hard red.

Thanks in advance

Not quite right if using dark mode. By changing certain lines in the ptcolors.txt file you can change the colors of the lines. Can't make them thicker though. And this only works on Macs.

Messing with Brightness and Contrast settings on the screen can make a big difference(especially if your screen is a TV instead of a dedicated computer monitor).

You actually fixed my problem just with these two words "Dark Mode". I never even realized there was a dark mode. I switched Pro Tools to "classic mode" and now the Bars grid lines are standing out perfectly.

Thanks a bunch!
