In Dashboard, it would be nice to alternate the row color of a list (not by condition).

 

There have been cases where I have hundreds or even thousands of items in a list and would prefer (for readability) to alternate the color. I am aware you can do this if you have a field with an incremental number such as ObjectID (example). However, most lists need to be sorted logically and that often means alphabetically.

Pretty hard to do in a list, but the table widget implements row striping and a "row index" global. Would be nice if there were something like "list index" that could be used similarly.

Until that gets added to the List, you can use the methodology in @JenniferAcunto's blog "Dashboards That Pop: Unique Lists" that uses a table masquerading as a list.
