You can tailor the colors and fonts to your liking using a custom CSS file. I’m not sure what you mean by ‘layout’ but the new Gtk+3 version does have more padding in many areas. I don’t think this is easily changeable, but it might be possible.
I’m not sure what is causing your flickering issues though. (I’m using High Sierra on a Mac Mini and don’t see any such issues) Those would probably be worth filing bug reports over. However, there’s a good chance those are video card related and might not be necessarily solvable via GnuCash code. Do you use any other Gtk+3 apps on your Mac? (if so and those apps don’t flicker, then that would help to show it is a GnuCash problem and not a Gtk problem) Finally, note that there is a more recent version of 2.6, The latest out is 2.6.21. It fixes several bugs from that 2.6.19-1 release. (The 2.6.20 had some major issues precipitating the 2.6.21 ‘final’ 2.6 release) Regards, Adrien > On May 7, 2018, at 5:36 PM, Scott Cason via gnucash-user > <gnucash-user@gnucash.org> wrote: > > I have been using Gnucash for a while now on a OSX laptop.
