How do yo print a spread sheet without grid lines from numbers beta?

Hi coffee,

I am not sure what you mean by Numbers Beta.

You have posted in the forum for Numbers for Mac. Here is a Numbers for Mac version 3.2 Answer.

Numbers makes use of several tables. Perhaps an input table, a data base and a "Presentation" table. You can move the "Presentation" table to its own sheet and print without grid lines (cell borders).

"Presentation" table with cell borders:

Same table formatted for printing (no cell borders or cell fill):

Menu > File Print... shows this in Print Preview:

Is that what you are trying for?

Hi coffee,

I tried to find a table from thier selections that had no grids or shaded lines

True. The 'Insert Table' options are limited. You can format a whole table at once by selecting it. Insert Table gives you a table that is already selected:

(I have deleted some Rows and Columns and 'squeezed' columns to make a smaller Screen Shot).

If the Table is not selected, click in it once, then click on the "bullseye"

With the whole table selected, I find the easiest way to change gridlines is in Format Panel > Cell > Border

Choose a Border Style (No Border) then click a border pattern for "All" (inside the red circle).

Step 2. Remove those alternating shaded rows. Now we need to go to Format Panel > Table

Untick Alternating Row Color.

BTW, I don't use Format Panel > Table > Grid Lines to change grid lines. I can't work that out.

Having gone to all this trouble, save a document with a table that has no borders or shaded lines. Save As Template for future use.

This was done on a Macbook Pro, OS X Mavericks 10.9.2, in Numbers 3.2. I don't know if this is possible in iCloud Beta.

My print ooptions did not have a "no grid/lines"option.

True. Print Preview has few editing options in Numbers 3.2. Most editing must be done in the document view.

Not very intuitive, but this combination in the Numbers for iCloud beta results in a table without gridlines (though I can't find a way to turn off the alternate row coloring).

First this:
