RELATED IDEAS

Change the data table row highlight to differ from table header.

It can be visually confusing when looking at tables in Manage 9.0 that the highlighted color of the selected row is the same gray tone as the header row, making it difficult to distinguish the header from the first record (which is generally selected by default.)

Adjusting the highlight/color would help visually separate and make it less confusing on the eyes.

    Thank you for taking the time to provide your ideas to IBM. We truly value our relationship with you and appreciate your willingness to share details about your experience, your recommendations, and ideas. Our team has reviewed this enhancement request and determined that it is a candidate for inclusion in the product. In the Carbon design system, there is 1px solid grey line differentiating the column header section and the first row that should be present. While this is not exactly what you are asking for, it does help and matches the design system of IBM

    We will implement this styling.
