John knows. There’s no one file with all of the styling. By default most of the theming will come from https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/adwaita-icon-theme <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/adwaita-icon-theme>, with a few overrides here-and-there to get things to behave or to create the standard green-bar appearance in the registers.

Linux users can easily apply a different theme and there’s a preference item to allow the theme to override the green-bar registers. Finding themes that make GnuCash less ugly on Windows and MacOS is a bit harder and you have to apply them by hand using settings.ini.
