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. Appreciate the help.

Use Notepad, copy and paste what I sent (maybe use "24px" as a test), and Save it as: C:\Users\david\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash\gtk-3.0.css Then start gnucash and see if things are changed. ________________________________ From: David JamesTK Sent: Sun Jan 16 00:16:05 EST 2022 To: "D."

With Windows 10 changing the overall size of everything is easy, can be done in small increments too only problem is all items are made larger - Chrome is already bordering on too big at the moment. Nabble Yes, sorry the title is a bit misleading as originally asking where the Nabble mailing list forum (not a forum) thingy had moved to, thought support may have stopped. David H, can I respond to you also, the wiki page is my reference point too, if you can highlight what needs to be typed i.e correct syntax as per D response that would be great.
