Extension summary

Similar to the "View gridlines" functionality in Microsoft Word, this extension allows you to view faint dashed borders on invisible tables (i.e. tables with border of width 0). Those gridlines will not be printed and visible to others, and can be deactivated via a toggle in the extension's menu in the Chrome menu.

User reviews

It does what it says. There is an issue where if you have a two cells, one with multiple lines of content and the other with only a single line, then the box drawn around the cell with only one line of content has the incorrect height.
