Thanks John,
I’ll test 2.7.4 then for theming.
As for font and size, that’s the code I was trying. (with a different font) I
even switched it to Baskerville as a test to see if the font itself I chose was
the issue. Still no dice.
I had to use this format below, but only the register is affected of course,
not the entire app:
style "gnc-register"
{
font_name = "Helvetica Neue UltraLight 14"
}
widget "*.GnucashSheet" style "gnu-register"
(taken from the gnucash git example of a .gtkrc file)
That worked. Now there is the issue that some text colors aren’t consistent. I
haven’t defined them yet which may be the problem. They seem to change between
red and black after several times of opening a register.
I’ll probably just play with this with 2.7.4 as well. I’ll be moving to 3.0
anyway when it reaches stable.
Regards,
Adrien
