Change the sheet background in Numbers on Mac

You can add a color to the background of individual sheets in a spreadsheet.

Change the sheet background

  1. Go to the Numbers app on your Mac.

  2. Open a spreadsheet, then select the tab for the sheet that you want to add a background to.

  3. Click an empty space on the sheet so nothing is selected.

  4. In the Format  sidebar, click the color well next to Background, then choose a color.

    If objects on your sheet, such as table cells, charts, and text boxes, don’t have a background fill, they show the background color. To add a fill, see Change the background of table cells, Add a background to a chart, or Fill objects with color.

Spreadsheets automatically print with background colors. To turn off background colors when printing, see Print a spreadsheet.
