I don't think I see this anywhere within the accessible settings but is
it possible for the background of the Action field in a register to
change color based on its contents?
I don't use the Action field much but I've found one particular use: to
flag entries for transactions that I've entere
It might perhaps be better to describe WHAT you want to accomplish
instead of asking about possibilities for the first HOW that came to
your mind. Why? Because there might be other "hows" even simpler.

That is a method that I would never have thought of, probably because I am
not an accountant.
I like it better than my current method that just uses guesstimates in the
SX.
It does add an account to contain the unallocated funds, but that is the
trade-off to keeping guesstimate out of

I think that it would be possible to use the loan wizard to build a
Scheduled loan payment Transaction pointing to an Unallocated Funds account
that could be used just as Michael suggested, adjusting for the correct
interest amount when the value is known.
I need to try that.

I use something like Michael's approach with paychecks, but my simple
workaround is that I enter the correct amount deposited to my checking
account (that *is* what I'm most interested in!), using a previous pay
transaction as the template. Inevitably, IT DOES NOT BALANCE, and I end

No, actually I know exactly what I want to accomplish and the colored
field to make the particular transaction stand out in the register is
precisely what I want to do. That's how I work.
I already have the splits set up exactly they way they need to be. I
just don't have the specific amount
No, I don't like the loan wizard. I already tried it and I still need
to flag the transactions to find them later in the register so I can fix
the splits correctly. The wizard doesn't save me any time.
Why not point to the loan wizard and how it can setup an automated
transaction schedule?
So far no developer has replied to this thread, so we do not know if there
are any 'hooks' under the hood to hang this request on, or if it would
require substantial development work to implement.
One path forward would be to create an Enhancement Request Bug Report in
the GnuCash Bugzilla https:/
Yeah, I know there's a good likelihood that it isn't supported but I
figured with all the CSS support maybe I'd get lucky and there was
support for attribute selection like there is in regular browser CSS.
But then that's a GTK ask and not necessarily a GnuCash ask.
The general thought if such

Sorry Michael, I didn't miss the suggestion, it's just not applicable to
my question. I was not asking for advice on accounting methods or
changing workflow. I was asking about a specific
programming/theming/coding question for the software itself.
I already have many account tabs open alread
It's not supported and it wouldn't be easy to implement in a general way. Gtk
nodes aren't HTML or XML elements with attributes, so Gtk CSS styling can't
query attributes as a selector.

That's what I figured. No worries, I'll deal with the text-only fields.
I've adjusted the columns widths enough that, in combination with
white text on a dark overall theme, the text is a little more pronounced
than it was when it was the light green/yellow registers with black text.
