Hi
Sorry to disagree!
I have been having his problem on Ubuntu 20.10 for some time. Yesterday
evening I tried the workarounds in the bug report with no discernable
effect.
Today I have done the upgrade to 21.04, the effect was still apparent,
the workarounds still had no effect.
Also (and this is probably not a Gnucash problem) Gnome Tweaks behaves
very oddly , uninstalling and reinstalling had no effect.
"Oddly" here means that trying to access the drop down lists on the
Appearance tab does not reveal any other alternatives - it seems to be
stuck on the theme set in Ubuntu Settings. - I'm sure that in the
historic past this was not the case. There are other oddities as well.
Research is required - of me.
Take care
Eric

Hi David(s),
David Carlson,
Did you see https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797493#c4 which
mentions themes?
I tested this in Windows 10 and could not duplicate it.
I did duplicate this problem in Ubuntu 20.04 and found a couple of
work-arounds.
Please see

I did not see anything about themes in that bug report
https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797493 except in a reference to
another bug report where the user admitted to choosing a non-standard
desktop theme. I did see the problem myself briefly recently but now I
forgot when. I suspect that I may have seen it on Windows rather than
Linux. Tht referenced bug report stated that when the user switched to the
Adwaita theme (which, IIRC, is the default theme for several Linux
desktops) the problem disappeared. Thus IMHO the theme concern does not
apply to 797493
I don't change desktop themes often, if ever or themes for GnuCash, I
leave it as 'out of the box', and I believe if David Pickett did too, then
I think it is a GnuCash bug

I run GNUCash on Ubuntu LTS Linux, and when I select a transfer choice,
the background under the choice goes transparent, showing the transaction
screen below, see attached; not at all helpful!
