Re: [GNC-dev] Customizing GnuCash's Appearance and the Wiki

John,

Thanks. Given that we have decreed that the wiki should cover current versions 
(which are defined as 3.x, 2.6.x and sometimes 2.4.x), then my assumption is 
true enough for wikiland.

David

It’s not quite true but it’s close enough: GnuCash started using Gtk2 with 
GnuCash 2.0.

[GNC-dev] Customizing GnuCash's Appearance and the Wiki

2018-10-13 Thread David T. via gnucash-devel
Hello,

I am hoping to clean up the FAQ section on customizing GC’s appearance, but I 
need a little background information first. My hope is to gather appearance 
customization into two separate pages. The first has already been created for 
GTK3 (which is appropriately named “GTK3”). I would like to think it should be 
possible to create another page for customization prior to GnuCash version 3 
called “GTK2.” So, my first question is: is it accurate to say that all 
customization for earlier versions of GnuCash used GTK2? I certainly don’t want 
to mischaracterize the tools.

Once I have determined this, I plan to move information to these pages, and 
strip down the FAQ to refer readers to the appropriate page based on their GC 
version. Thus, the question on register colors and the question on the gtk 
resource file will have their information pushed into the two GTK pages.

Cheers,
David
