The "someone" in that sentence is the upstream gtk project. We depend on their code to create the graphical user interface for gnucash. When Gtk switched from version 2 to 3, they redesigned all of the user interface elements the gtk library provides. In many cases the new elements take up more space as you noted. As to what can be done about it: you can tweak the style sheet used by gnucash to render the user interface elements on screen. Starting points for this can be found here: https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/GTK3#Visual_Styling Regards, Geert _______________________________________________ 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.
