Hi y’all,

I’ve been told by my team that the stripes on the tables aren’t dark enough to make a difference looking at them:

Is there a way to darken the dark-striped rows using custom CSS?

Thank you,

Shawn

You can try something like this.

```auto
tr[data-style="striped"]:nth-child(2n) {
background-color: rgba(51, 51, 51, 0.2) !important;
}

```

Please feel free to adjust the color as you need, I was simply using the same rgba as the native setup, just changed the opacity a bit (the last parameter).
