Never mind, found the solution, the problem was my OS was messed up,
re-installed it and now the dark theme is working. Thanks for all who
tried to help me on this.

Sorry, I'm new to this and already replied 3 times but no answer, not
sure what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks so much for your prompt reply, According to this site
https://www.mail-archive.com/gnucash-user@gnucash.org/msg07079.html, you
need enter the following entries into a settings.ini, please see the
detail below (it's my first post here, not sure what'll be displayed or
not, so to be safe, I've added the important part below
I have come across the following combination of settings to enable a
default
dark theme on linux. Creating a file settings.ini in $HOME/.config/gtk-3.0
with this contents
[Settings]
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=true
gtk-theme-name=Adwaita
I already have a settings.ini file under gtk-3.0, so I just appended
above entry, and nothing changed.
I did as you suggested, this is the steps I took:
Edit > Preferences > Register > Graphics > unchecked Use GnuCash
built-in color theme. Restart GNC. Again, nothing changed. I did not
logout, since my dark theme is already on. What am I missing? I had an
old pc also with Linux, on that one, the GNC dark theme is working, but
I'm not sure because I installed/removed so many apps (fairly new to
Linux), I dont't recall what I did to make it work.

Michael,
Under the Edit->Preferences dialog there is an option to use the GnuCash built
in colour scheme. Turning this off allows the dark Theme from the system to be
used in the register display. I am running Linux Mint using Adwaita-dark for the
buttons and the Linux Mint-Y-dark for the Windows borders and Mint-Y-Dark-Teal
for Icons in the System theme settings. These seem to be picked up by GnuCash
without any difficulty. I have made no changes to the defauklt gtk-3.0.css
filein .config/gnucash or the stylesheets in.local/share/gnucash. The window
appearance with the default GnuCash colours is as per the attached screenshot of
a screen fragment. With the Gnucash colors on, the appearance is the same apart
from the background colors for the register entries but the windows borders
icons and buttons remain unchanged. The link you posted did not link to anything
so I am not sure what you have done

Subject: [GNC] Help: How to set the default report stylesheet
Message-ID:
<CAK+4tgqqXVmiA1moOLZSkKocriJ=thwztph4gsr08ypj2+r...@mail.gmail.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
I've been wondering how to do this for some time, now:
When I print a report, I much prefer the CSS Stylesheet (experimental)
option for all the reports I use.
I can't seem to find any way to make that the default so I don't have to
change every report I run.
Exception: saved reports have that set before I save them, so I don't have
to "fix" them.
Example: Pull up an invoice -> print invoice -> scowl in disgust at the
format -> options -> General -> Stylesheet -> select CSS-based stylesheet
(experimental) -> Apply/OK -> much better.
Any way to eliminate all that select-trauma?
