Is it possible to customize the font size and other properties of the window titlebars in gnome-shell?

You can trim the title bar aspect with

  • Open Terminal

  • Create file "gtk.css", on /home/(userdirectory)/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css

    $ cd /home/(userdirectory) //change with your username directory $ gedit .config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css

  • insert code below

    .header-bar.default-decoration { padding-top : 4px; padding-bottom : 4px; } .header-bar.default-decoration .button.titlebutton { padding-top : 2.5px; padding-bottom : 2.5px; }

  • Quit and Save Gedit

  • Restart Gnome Shell (Alt+F2, r)

Install gnome-tweak-tool and under "Fonts" there is "window title font"

  • Thanks that works for font type and size, but I also want to change the titlebars height, color and maybe icons.

  • @nilfric For that you have to use themes. Google themes or how to create your own theme

  • Hmm, I hoped there would be a way to change this in gnome-session.css, but I can't find any class that references the titlebar.
