A List Apart: Articles Zebra Striping More Data for the Case.
I think it’s fair to say that the vast majority of us, myself included, expected to see that zebra striping helped a lot.


If you must zebra-stripe, at least do it in groups of 3 rows at a time. Every-other-row coloring gives me "eye burn".

That's definitely part of the problem--I'm not convinced I can match rows accurately while looking through all of that meaningless visual buzz.

I think that for a chart of this sort, as an alignment aid, I would prefer something like thin gray rules separating the rows into groups of 5.
