Is there a way to hide all those distracting lines when using theme-grid?

 

Tried setting borderColor but no luck.

You are right backgroundColor works fine but borderColor does not.   I found a post saying it is not supported.  https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-blog/survey123-tricks-of-the-trade-groups-grids-and-p...

That post has a Idea attached to it already.  https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-ideas/survey123-theme-grid-set-bordercolor-property/i... 

I heard it is coming to repeats in 3.13 I think but not sure on this add.

What I did for my grids is add color to the labels.  I really wish I could have the border colors there as well.  I did request that each line can be changed and not just the entire group but did not hear back.

This post someone said they set to the background color of the form to hide them and it worked.

Thank you. I will try and see how it works, but I have a limiting factor working against this solution. The person I am making this survey for specifically asked for "survey items to be side-by-side" (aka theme-grid), and for different survey components (e.g., groups) to have specific colors. As such, it would be ideal if I could change the lines themselves.

If this hasn't already been requested, perhaps I should make an enhancement request.

I thought you wanted to make then disappear.  You could match the border to the background instead of the other way around.  borderColor works for me so not sure what the issue is? What does not work?  Note repeats do not work only groups but it is coming in 3.13 I think.

Really? That is what I originally tried, but setting borderColor under body::esri:style does nothing for me when theme-grid is enabled. I tried setting this on different elements: group, text, and repeat.

Setting background color does work, but I doubt the end user will be satisfied with the appearance.
