Make Grid dots more visible

Grid dots appear to be a single pixel in size and as such are difficult to see on high resolution screens - is there some way of increasing the dot size or changing the colour to be more visible?

I can't think so,

just the GridStyle (you are talking about Style 0 right?)

and the COLOR of the grid. Options, [Colors]

In addition to the tips above, changing your background color may be worth experimenting with as well.

No, I was thinking of the dotted grid display - I find GRIDSTYLE 0 too intrusive, but I may have to put up with it if nothing can be done about the dots.

Change your GRAPHICSCONFIG command display settings or program colors found through OPTIONS command's DISPLAY tab COLORS button.

 

Or in Windows explore your video card's ability to do that too (if it has it): assuming your monitor is even capable of course.

Pendean, thank you for your response.  I when into the DISPLAY/COLORS window display and searched the "Interface Element" selection list.  Grid dots were not listed.  I tested the process by changing other elements, such as the grid lines, and the colors were changeable.  Unfortunately, no dots were in the element list.

 

The GRAPHICCONFIG was not helpful, honestly, I did not know what I was looking at.  Did not attempt to go into Windows explore.  I don't have the technical background to do anything too deep in any software.

 

Was hoping there was something simple to change and I don't like the grid lines.  Will stick with the eye strain to see the dots.

Share screenshots of your AutoCAD's ABOUT and GRAPHICSCONFIG commands pop-ups here please.
