Default Alternating bar colours.

G'day all.
I have done a search but can't seem to find the answer i am looking for.
What i would love to do is in the arrange area have the kind of odd/even vertical bar colours but be able to have it so 4 bars are a dark colour then the next 4 bars are a lighter colour.
Anyone know if this is possible and how to do it?
I get lost sometimes with bar numbers and would find it much easier to have the alternating colours as a quick visual to know where i am up to when arranging.

Last setting in Options/Preferences/Appearance page; Divide arrange view vertically every x measures.

ARG another one of those "why is this not default!?!!" thank you! Didn't even think to look into it until years after I start using Reaper.

Is there any way to make the color contrast a bit more? I can barely notice the difference

Open the Theme development/tweaker from Actions and adjust the Track background color for odd and even tracks. The divided blocks in arrange have these two colors alternating. Save the theme (with a new name) to keep your changes.
