Grid background color

[JusJJ 0]

Is it somehow possible to change the background color and remove borders of the (string)grid in FMX?

I would like to align the data in a 4 x 10 grid but only keep the text visible and hide background and borders.

@JusJJ  I think that easy way would be:

1. right-click on StringGrid and "Edit Custom Style..." option -> to create a StyleBook customized
2. into it, you need just access 2 properties: StyleGrid1Style1 --> and change: "background -> Visible=false" and "linefill -> Brush.Kind = none"
3. in StringGrid options, uncheck "Show Header"

I found one problem. Changing background visible -> false it is impossible to change grid size and position at runtime.

  StringGrid1.Width      := 100;
  StringGrid1.Height     := 100;
  StringGrid1.Position.X := 100;
  StringGrid1.Position.Y := 100;

  Memo1.Lines.Add('After: StringGrid1.Height=' + StringGrid1.Height.ToString);
end;

It works this way, but if you try to enlarge it, it doesn't work
