Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble
Thanks Glen, yup, removed TXT as this also appeared when first editing settings.ini file. It is still a text file tho', as opposed to a configuration file (settings.ini) That link is useful, i'll try a few examples and go from there rather not take up anymore of folks time.

Settings.ini seems to use the gtk-font-= format. Cheers David H. Typefaces There are two ways of setting a default font and size for GnuCash. The first sets an option in GTK's settings.ini for all GTK applications (GIMP etc.), the other uses css to accomplish the same for GnuCash only. * If neither you nor a program changed the default values before, the files mentioned in this section will not exist. In this case just create them as pure text files and with normal file access rights. The examples below with both set the default font to Arial and font size to 14. Via settings.ini Create if necessary and add the following line to GTK_CONFIG_HOME<https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations#GTK_CONFIG_HOME>/settings.ini: [Settings] gtk-font-name=Arial 14 General notes * In settings.ini, lines beginning with a # and blank lines are considered comments. * If the file exists and has a [Settings] line just add the font line beneath it. * Setting font family via settings.ini doesn't work on macOS and Microsoft Windows. Use CSS to set font family on those operating systems.
