The ability to format cell borders with line style and color.

Hello!
Just a simple idea that might be interesting for other users. When you have many columns with different categories, there is no simple way to make a visual distinction that allows you to "group" data vertically.
So far, what I'm doing is to create a "fake" border using an empty column with background color. This has some issues, because there is a minimum width, and title is mandatory and must be unique.
The idea would be to define - at column level - some style (border thickness and color) for its left border (I think it would be enough to define just one (left or right) border)
Thank you
Jose
I second this idea!
I would love stroke/border tools, but I don't know how difficult they'd be to implement
The ability to format cell borders like we do in Microsoft Excel is a miss if you want us to believe smartsheet is easier and faster to learn and use than MS Excel. If it wasn't for google search - i would not have known. Is this feature on the roadmap for 2023 or 2024 or when? Thanks!

Surely you are going t add the ability to have cell boarders in a future release. This is a pretty standard function.
I would like to be able to change the background colors on the column headers itself to distinguishe between one section assigned to a process that require multiple columns within a series of processes. Giving up columns to distinguish is going to make an already large sheet with many workflows and formulas in the background just too big.
Very standard and would be helpful in my work. Thank you
adding one more comment on this option. It would be helpful forsure
I am wondering if Smartsheet can make the borders of cells stand out more when using dark-fill colours for cells that are selected. Its hard to delineate between the data.
Please attached photo as an example.

The request to make it possible to put borders around cells is nearly a year old. This would be a most helpful feature.
I agree - we need cell boarders. It seems that these comments seem to be ignored. We have been asking for this feature along with adding a custom color palette to the reports for over a year. What is the timeline for these enhancements.
We are considering an alternate program due to lack of response to seemingly modest requests.
I'm currently looking into Smartsheet as a replacement for our last program. As simple as something like cell borders is, this could LITERALLY be a dealbreaker for us signing up. I see requests for it spanning years in the help section with no response. Hmmmmm......
Would like a way to add cell borders to my sheets in SS. Would also like control options like in Excel to control each border individually, and with different formatting, like single lines around all cells and double lines around cells that have totals.
Anything new happening with this request? I agree that this feature is well overdue.
I have a workflow with nearly 40 automations, half of which are email-based requests for updates with various sets of triggers. While I know the automations work, due to months of testing, when our system went live to the institution, I became very worried that the automations wouldn't run and I'd have no idea whether or…
Description: When users upload multiple photos in one action via the Smartsheet iOS mobile app, all files are assigned the same generic name and timestamp. This makes it difficult to identify individual photos and creates confusion in workflows that rely on accurate, unique file naming. Why This Matters: Industry Standard:…
Our consistent experience is that Smartsheet objects can take anywhere from 5-20 seconds to load. This feels extremely slow when you're actively facilitating a call and working between sheets, waiting for it to load. Other solutions in the industry have extremely fast, sub-5-second load times. I would request the product…
