Can settings in Customize View be applied on all folders?

I personalized my settings in Customize View:Messages (changed the grid line
style), but found it only applied to the current folder. Is there a way to
propogate this change on all my folders? In Windows there is a similar
function in: Tools -> Folder Options -> Folder views: You can see all of your
folders to the same view -> Like Current Folder. Thanks.

To change a view globally, use View | [Arrange By] | Current View | Define
Views to modify the view definition itself.

Thanks for your reply Sue. I followed your instructions, selected <Current
view settings> and Modify. It seems the changes only apply on the main
folders, but not the subfolders (I have >20 subfolders for each folder). Is
there something I didn't do right?

You need to modify the named view, not <Current View>.
