Re: [GNC] Font size in journals ver 3.5 build 3.5+ (2019-03-30)
You're more than welcome.
This forum is a real fantastic source of support. People chime in from all
over with good info.
I looked up the original thread ("Font", back in April 2019) in order to
give credit to the person that supplied the solution.
His name is Adrien Monteleone. I think he is one of the developers.

Nope, not yet anyway. I just try to help out as much as I can on the list, but
thanks! (that *was* quite a long thread that did a deep dive into customizing
the UI. And it was very much a team effort.)

Let me try to be of help. Please don't give me credit for this as I got all of
the info from this very forum.
1. Create a txt file named
gtk-3.0.css
2. In the text file include the format below (substitute a different point size
and font of your choice)
* {
font: 15px consolas, sans-serif;
}
3. Save the file formatted as above and with the name as above to the folder
C:/Users/"name of computer"/AppData/Roaming/GnuCash
That's all there is to it. Restart Gnucash and it should be using the new font.

Re: [GNC] Font size in journals ver 3.5 build 3.5+ (2019-03-30)
OK. Unfortunately I have not tried messing with font size in GnuCash on Win 10. If GnuCash fonts are not roughly the same size as the rest of your workspace, I think there is something in the gnucash folder in the start menu to fiddle with. Otherwise the display font size should be adjusted. David Carlson On Tue, Sep 3, 2019, 3:22 PM wrote: > Fair enough. Operating system: Windows 10.

Fair enough. Operating system: Windows 10. Installed from a downloaded file from the GnuCash website, an upgrade from I think 2.18, something like that. I read the instructions at the GTK3 page.

Re: [GNC] Font size in journals ver 3.5 build 3.5+ (2019-03-30)
Actually, there are several rabbit holes there but they mostly relate to the operating system that your instance of GnuCash happens to be running in. As Tommy Trussell mentions, we cannot help much without knowing which you are using. It would be very difficult to make a FAQ entry that would not become obsolete faster than last year's phone book (remember those?), so the best advice is to ask again here or learn more about your operating system.
