# Table Data

## **Auto hide table scrollers**

When enabled, the table scrollers will be hidden when not in use instead of showing all the time.

* In the Settings/Preferences dialog (**`⌘ + ,`**), go to General tab
* Tick/untick the **`Auto hide table scrollers`** to enable/disable it.

## **Alternating row background**

By default, TablePlus displays the alternating colours so that you can easily distinguish different data rows. You can deselect this option to use them same colour for every row.

* In the Settings/Preferences dialog (**`⌘ + ,`**), go to General tab
* Tick/untick the **`Alternating row background colors`** to enable/disable it.

## **Estimate count**

It's recommended to be turned on for better performance. When you turn it off, TablePlus might take longer to return the query results.

* In the Settings/Preferences dialog (**`⌘ + ,`**), go to General tab
* Tick/untick the **`Estimate count`** to enable/disable it.
* Set the limit of row numbers when TablePlus starts estimating count.
