All (John, Adrien and David),
John wins the lottery on this question with his sharp eye, noticing that
> /Users/[user]/Library/Application Support/Gnucash/config/gtk-3.0/gtk-3.0.css
should be named
/Users/[user]/Library/Application Support/Gnucash/config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
Changes to this file, now that it is correctly named, show up in Gnucash. Thank
you to all of you who spent time thinking about this.

Will,
Assuming that $HOME/.gtk-3.0.css, $HOME/.gtk-3.0/gtk.css, and
$HOME/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css don't exist and that you haven't overridden the
definition of XDG_CONFIG_DIRS in
Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/etc/gnucash/environment I think that the only
files that Gtk would look at are $HOME/Library/Application
Support/Gnucash/gtk-3.0.css and $HOME/Library/Application
Support/Gnucash/config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
Note that your attempt to use that last path isn't right because you named the
file gtk-3.0.css.
Regards,
John Ralls
