Marilyn, You’re on a recent Mac, so don’t worry about line endings. They should default to unix endings (that is a LineFeed only).
Your .css configuration will go into a subdirectory of your home directory, which is, say /Users/marilyn, but whatever your actual home directory is. Here’s a diagram. You need the GTK_DTA_HOME folder. https://lists.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Diagrams_-_MacOS <https://lists.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Diagrams_-_MacOS> 1. Open a new Finder window. Your home diectory (say Marilyn) will probably be at the top of your Favourites. In that window, press Shift-Command-. (period or full-stop) simultaneously. You should see a number of files with names starting with . (dot). These are called dotfiles or hidden files. Scroll through them. Do you have a .local folder? If so, open it up. Do you have a folder called ‘share'? If so, go to 4. If not, go to 3. 2. If not create a new folder (Shift-Cmd-N) and call it .local. You will be warned about creating a dotfile. Go ahead. 3. Open that folder (double click on .local), and create a new folder called share (all lower case.) Open ’share’ by double clicking. Create a new folder and call it gtk-3.0 That’s where the .css file goes. 4. Double click on ’share’ to open it. Do you have a folder called gtk-3.0? If so, that’s where the .css file goes. Otherwise create a folder called gtk-3.0 Press Shift-Command-. again to remove dotfiles from the Finder display.
