The Wiki covers this, I'm pretty sure it is in the FAQ. There are a fair
amount of UI hooks covered there and the supplied sample file can
illuminate a bit more detail and usage.
I'd highly recommend on reading up on the topic of running GnuCash with
the GTK Inspector. If I recall, this is not possible with the Windows
native .exe, but does work with Mac & Linux. (I've used it for both
platforms.) Doing so will allow you to test declarations in real time.
GTK+ CSS doesn't necessarily work quite like Web CSS, though there are
similarities. Also, not all UI elements can be addressed via CSS, so
there are limitations. (this is primarily due to some of them not being
properly 'exposed' to CSS via named classes, IDs, et cetera, so if you
find an element like this you could optionally file an RFE, or a PR to
expose it for styling.)

For anyone on Windows, you might get lucky doing CSS playground stuff in
a Linux VM or via WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) and then trying the
same declarations on Windows, but mileage may of course vary. (though if
you can run a VM or WSL, I'd just stick with that for a daily driver)

I'm running gnucash on Ubunut from a flatpak.
I'd like to find the CSS that controls the colors of the ledger pages.
The green bars.
Alternatively, the color of the toolbar or something else that stands out.
I have several gnucash files, and I want to know with certainty which
one I'm looking at.
Any ideas?
