Apologies if this has been answered before; I could only find posts 2+ years old on this topic when I searched...

Is is it possible to changing the color of the grid for dark maps? Scripting is fine, I could write an extension to do this.

Thanks.

Not currently, the grid is always gray for now. There are 2 big bunches of features I'm looking at working on after v2.9, and the feature request for custom grid colors, widths and visibility is in one of them.

I don't mean to resurrect an old thread, but I was in search of this very thing. I've some maps that it is very, very, very hard to see the grid on, and being able to adjust the color or the thickness of the grid would be so very helpful.

I saw it mentioned as a 2.9 hopeful feature, since we're running 3.02 I am hopeful that means it's been implemented and I'm just missing how to make the adjustment.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thank you,
DEW

It has not been added yet. The grid lines drawn actually adjusts slightly to the background image, which makes it a little more complex to implement a color change.

Well that answered my question, I eagerly await the new version. the grey line on white snow (Reign of Winter) is hard to see when sent to a TV built into the gaming table.

To shamelessly plug my own utility, you could use the "Map Align" utility to add the grid of the color and width that you want to the map and then use that in FG.

Sample with grid added of solid blue, grid added of light blue of width 2, and original image:
