First, thanks for making this very functional software available.

A settings option to have grid lines and / or alternate row coloring would be very helpful when viewing long lists of files.

Thanks for considering.

The alternate row coloring is controlled by the theme, so if you settings>Settings location and from themes folder duplicate the entire folder of the theme you are using, you can edit the xaml file inside in a text editor and change lines with these brushes to control colors of those
    <SolidColorBrush x:Key="ListItemEvenBackgroundBrush" Color="Transparent" />
    <SolidColorBrush x:Key="ListItemOddBackgroundBrush" Color="#0b777777" />

Did you mean vertical or horizontal lines?

Thank you for the quick response.
Did locate the editable xaml and did that. 👍

 * But there seems to be no variable to set for alternate row color in the 'file folder pane' / 'sidebar'. Please view the attached screen shot extract. Is there another variable to set in the xaml for this?

* Grid lines are more subtle and sometimes better than alternate row coloring. Of course, both serve the purpose of better readability. Option for grid lines would be a nice to have.

Ah, right, there is no alternate row color in sidebar. Will make a note to check how that would be custimizable for v4 since the entire theming will be different
