I'm not using Windows these days, but I recall a specific gotcha from Win7 where it cached a copy of a working config file, and you could change the config file as often or as much as you liked and absolutely nothing happened. I would get the OS to search the hard drives for "gtk-3.0.css* because there might be another copy stored somewhere.

We do, that's what the *.log files in the same directory as your data file are. Note, though, that they log only transactions and their splits. Nothing else, especially not the business stuff, is logged. To re-enter them use File>Import>Replay GnuCash Log File. You could enable auto-save in preferences, but when that runs it blocks the UI so it can be a bit tedious if you have a large file. You might also consider the SQLite3 backend that writes the database immediately when you complete a transaction, at the expense of not making a backup file and not being able to quit without saving if you decide you've made a mess of a session.

Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble
I will concur with all the other responders to this, that it's very
common to want to customize the font and many other things about the
program to make it more appealing or readable, etc. The thing about CSS
files, if I understand things correctly, is that they are kind of a
"read thru once" type of file. You specify the broad aspects of the
appearances at the beginning of the file and then narrow down the scope
of your changes as you progress down through the rest of the file.
I'm using GnuCash on a Mac so the location of settings files and the
like is different from a Windows based operating system. But, the syntax
used to make the settings is the same, as far as the CSS file goes. The
Wiki is a good place to get an idea of the different places for the
different configuration files, as has been suggested by others.
I do use Windows at work, and one of my pet peeves about their
philosophy is making things "simple" for users with respect to file
types and the like. In this area, simple seems to equal ignorant. They
default to hiding "known" file types, as if that is some great favor to
you, so you don't have to worry your little self about such things.
Argh. This makes it incredibly difficult to help someone when they're
looking at a directory of files and it shows three "setup" files,
because Windows is saving you the bother of knowing there is a
setup.bat, setup.exe, and setup.ini file. Unless you turn off that
particular option, you don't know which file is which.
So, in case you are being cursed with the "it says it's gtk-3.0.css but
I think it's saving as gtk-3.0.css.txt", attached is a gtk-3.0.css file
that only contains the font settings listed in the messages below. You
can try to copy this file in the location(s) specified by the Wiki, or
any other suggestions you find in other messages about this topic, from
the past. You close GnuCash, copy it to the directory you think will
work, then start GnuCash, see if it did anything, etc. This is the
method of testing settings if you're changing them by editing the .css file.
Once you get this initial setting working, you can maybe take a look at
any of the other customizations people have done. You can really do some
nice stuff with the GTK settings.

[GNC] Budget calculation possible bug
I am using the Budget routine with Expenses and Income selected, set to range, manual periods, with 1 selected in both cases. In the January ie first column only for Income, the Total does not equal the sum of the components in both the Budget, and Budget report. In fact, if I enter zero in each income component, the total stays the same.

Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble
As I mentioned earlier, I used exactly those settings to change the fonts,
repeatedly. Different faces, different sizes. So something isn't right on your
machine.
Two quick questions:
1) are you restarting gnucash each time after you save gtk-3.0.css?
2) did Notepad add ".txt" to your file name (making it gtk-3.0.css.txt)?
For the record, many people have changed the fonts in GnuCash, so that's just
your frustration bleeding into the process. A search of the lists will show you
many discussions in the past, as well as numerous resources on the wiki,
indicating user interest in the topic.

David,
Until you create gtk-3.0.css, it's not going to exist.
Use Notepad, copy and paste what I sent (maybe use "24px" as a test), and Save
it as:
C:\Users\david\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash\gtk-3.0.css
Then start gnucash and see if things are changed.

Thanks D, searched C: drive but no gtk-3.0.css file found.
With Windows 10 changing the overall size of everything is easy, can be done in
small increments too only problem is all items are made larger - Chrome is
already bordering on too big at the moment.
Nabble
Yes, sorry the title is a bit misleading as originally asking where the Nabble
mailing list forum (not a forum) thingy had moved to, thought support may have
stopped.
David H, can I respond to you also, the wiki page is my reference point too, if
you can highlight what needs to be typed i.e correct syntax as per D response
that would be great.
Cheers

So,
My gtk-3.0.css is in
C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash
And the designator that changes fonts looks like this:
* {
font-size: 16px;
font-family: "Arial", sans-serif;
}
You'd be better off following that, rather than copying from another app.

Copied the config file containing this
[Settings]
gtk-font-name=Arial 18
gtk-xft-antialias=1
gtk-xft-hinting=1
gtk-xft-hintstyle=hintfull
gtk-xft-rgba=rgb
Into empty file location C:\Users\david\AppData\Local\gtk-3.
No change, this happened with Thunderbird too, option there was edit css file
something mentioned on wiki also.

It’s my understanding the file is optional so won’t appear in all locations?
Have you tried copying your file into the app data location which is currently
empty by the look of things?

Probably not, depends what you set GNC_DATA_HOME to I guess - check that wiki
again - https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations#GTK_CONFIG_HOME
Cheers David H.
GTK_DATA_HOME
Versions: 3.x and more recent only
GnuCash uses GTK for its graphical user interface; thus, locations that are
used by GTK are also relevant. Note the base directories on Windows and macOS
for this differ from the base directories for
GNC_DATA_HOME.
Linux
USER_DATA_HOME/gtk-3.0
Windows
%LOCALAPPDATA%\gtk-3.0
macOS
HOME/.local/share/gtk-3.0

Is this the right folder location and entry (18 font not needed, just making it
