Please refer to 2xJPG file and a test FC file
At Preferences ==> Draft - Grid and Snapping ==> Grid colour and Transparency = 0 to 100%
It seems that the current setting of Grid colour and Transparency is in reverse order. Is this meant to be like this? or possible bug.
Please comment.

everything seems to work here. the transparency affects the two axes and the writing. all of these changes only become active for me after a freecad restart

For clarity and accuracy, @thomas-neemann please make sure you're using the most up to date v0.20dev when testing possible bugs. Thx in advance!

Code: Select all

$ git rev-list --count HEAD

Edit: you may want to consider using the Snap edge which updates nightly?

Edit2: Sorry, you may have been up to date at the time of this post. My bad. Please ignore this noise if that is so.

I also suspect that it was the most recent weekly version

Ok and what is when the grid colour is updated in preferences, but simply not applied? The grid stays in the same grey tone even after clicking the grid button and restarting FreeCAD. Any ideas?
