MATLAB: Property editor grid lines

plot

Hello,
Can you make the grid line in a plot thicker in the property editor? I want to make mine more visible but cannot figure how.
Thanks

No, this does not work from the property editor.
But you can draw lines manually also:
% Create a test diagram:
AxesH = axes;
x = linspace(0, 2*pi, 100);  % Test data
plot(x, sin(x));
% The modifications start here:
GridStyle.Color     = [0.2, 0.4, 0.1];
GridStyle.LineStyle = '-';
GridStyle.LineWidth = 2.5;
GridStyle.HitTest   = 'off';
Child   = get(AxesH, 'Children');         
XTick   = get(AxesH, 'XTick');
YTick   = get(AxesH, 'YTick');
XLimit  = get(AxesH, 'XLim');
YLimit  = get(AxesH, 'YLim');
newGrid = cat(1, ...
          line([XTick; XTick], YLimit, 'Parent', AxesH, GridStyle), ...
          line(XLimit, [YTick; YTick], 'Parent', AxesH, GridStyle));
% New grid on top or bottom of other objects: 
set(AxesH, 'Child', [newGrid; Child(:)]);
% Or: set(AxesH, 'Child', [Child(:); newGrid]);
% Disable original dashed grid:
set(AxesH, ...
   'XGrid',      'off', ...
   'YGrid',      'off', ...
   'YTickMode',  'manual', ...
   'TickLength', zeros(1, 2));
