As I wrote before gnucash uses GSettings, a part of glib. GSettings in turn uses dconf as storage backend. The defaults are compiled in the GSettings schema for gnucash which is typically installed in /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas I don't know how and where dconf stores the changes. I never had to bother with that. However by asking you to make changes with dconf-editor I'm trying to establish whether dconf itself is working correctly on your system.
