Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble
It might be worth mentioning, I think the recommended location for the file (...app data... and files and folders contained), is a hidden folder. IE It may not appear in searches, or by navigating there by clicking icons in Windows explorer. However, a user should be able to formulate the path and type it into the address bar. Once you make it to the app data folder, you're in. Good luck 🤞 Kind regards, Greg Feneis (Pixel 3) On Sun, Jan 16, 2022, 19:09 Liz Dodd wrote: > On Sun, 16 Jan 2022 16:28:40 -0500 > Ken Farley wrote: > > > Argh.

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.

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.

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 T.

Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble
Followed the wiki instructions, although no need to create a file as settings.ini already exists as shown. What does not exist (at least on my laptop) is: GTK_CONFIG_HOME/settings.ini: Or this path posted by D below C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash This is the only path to GNUCash files C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash (isnt this for older 32 bit programmes x86?)

Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble
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. David T.
