Assuming the CSS parser is obeying the rules, it should make no difference whatsoever whether the line end is LF, CR, CRLF, or LFCR. Both CR and LF are to be treated as whitespace and CSS is, by design, agnostic about line boundaries. ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.

Re: [GNC] Fonts
Adrien,
Thanks for guiding me through the "Way to do it"
It worked a treat.
Many thanks for helping me,

Gareth,
Yes, everything *between* the ` but not including the ` (if that helps):
`* { font: 10pt verdana, arial, sans-serif; }`
You put the line in a *plain* text file named:
gtk-3.0.css
and place it in:
C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash
Then start or re-start GnuCash. You’ll need to restart each time you alter the
size or font.
The `*` is a CSS selector indicating ALL elements of the UI. (or of the HTML
for a report or webpage) If you only want to target certain elements, you can
use those selectors instead.
CSS rules are enclosed in {}.
CSS declarations begin with a property name followed by a `:` and then the
values you want to set. The declaration is ended with a `;`.
The above is a shorthand version of separate rules:
font-size:
font-family:
You could specify them separately if you like, as so:
* {
font-size: 10pt;
font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; }
Note, capitalization on fonts is usually sensitive, so those *might* have to be:
`Verdana` and `Arial` respectively.
Finally, rules can be on a single line if you like, but I write it on separate
lines as a readability convention, even for short declarations so they all look
the same in a larger file. This allows the selector and the individual
declarations to easily stand out. It also makes editing and comment masking
much easier, but all of that is well beyond the immediate task here.
Regards,
Adrien

Re: [GNC] Fonts
Good to know Tim, thanks!
Since you copy-pasted, my guess would be you copied the invisible LF ending
from the e-mail, which Notepad now dutifully honors, and now you’ve shown by
experiment that it also retains that line ending even when editing the file.
That’s good news.
When you have a few minutes, for completeness, can you test what happens if you
create a new file in Notepad and *type* the multi-line rule instead of
copy-paste? (be certain to rename or move your current .css file out of that
directory and restart GnuCash)
That would definitively establish that Notepad has moved to LF only line
endings and can be used to write CSS. I’ll then add this info to the wiki page
on GTK3.

Adrien

Re: [GNC] Fonts
Apologies if this seems to be getting a little off topic. Yesterday when I
was experimenting, I found no mess. It just worked.
Started by cutting and pasting the three lines * { ... } from the email
into a blank notepad file. Saved it with the appropriate name in the
appropriate place. Opened GnuCash, it worked.
Closed GnuCash, opened Notepad again, deleted the line breaks to make it
just one line, resaved it, it still worked.
Closed GnuCash, opened Notepad again, hit return at the appropriate spots
to recreate the three-line file, saved it, it still worked.
Tried various capitalized and lower-case font names, and "px" and "pt" and
various numbers for the font size. It always worked. I settled on 10pt
Verdana. Others may end up elsewhere.
GnuCash 3.5 Windows Pro 10 v 1803
No complaints at all from me. Thanks for making this easy. Tim

Re: [GNC] Fonts
Good call. Since it was a one-line file it might still fly. While I haven’t
written CSS on Windows in years, I seem to recall needing to download a
separate editor because Notepad couldn’t do it. (and I think that was one of
the early reasons why Notepad++ was released) I don’t have a Win10 installation
to test if MS changed the line-ending behavior or at least added the Unix/Linux

However, if you had tried to split the line, you may not have had the same
success.
Could you try with the original

Re: [GNC] Fonts
WOW!
I have to admit that I've had to squint a little bit more with some of the
latest versions of Gnucash. Most of the solutions that you see are so much
more involved that, even with past experience in coding & Linux, I've
decided not to mess with it.
This solution was so quick and effective that it's almost unbelievable!
Thank you so very much,
Denny

Re: [GNC] Fonts
In many windows versions there are 2 apps: notepad.exe and wordpad.exe.
Notepad is a 'text editor'.
Wordpad is a relic of the days of RTF-formatted text. It frequently trips up
people thinking it looks like a text editor.
Be sure which one you intend to use.

Re: [GNC] Fonts
Good to know about Notepad. It could be that older versions of the app weren’t
as versatile with line endings.
And yes, multi vs. single line css is just a style convention.

Re: [GNC] Fonts
For what it's worth ... Notepad worked just fine for me ... GnuCash 3.5,
Windows 10 Pro version 1803 ...
After trying a few variations ... various fonts and sizes ... I ended up
with
* { font: 10pt verdana, arial, sans-serif; }
... and by the way it works fine on one line ... Thanks! Tim

Re: [GNC] Fonts
Create a file using a text editor. (not Notepad) Be certain the editor uses
linux/unix line endings.
Name it gtk-3.0.css
Put this in the file:
* {
font: 12px arial, sans-serif;
}
Save it in C:\Users\{your user name}\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash
Start or restart GnuCash.
Adjust the font size and font name in the file as desired, that was just an
example. You can also use other font size units like em or pt if you prefer.
The font property takes a size and a list of fonts. Generic names like
’sans-serif’ will use the system font of that type. The app will try to use the
fonts in the order you give, so if it can’t find or use your first choice, it
will fall back to the next one on the list.

Adrien
