Dialogue box window and side-panel background colour

I entered the command below as an ordinary user to change the size of my dialogue window:-

gsettings set org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser window-size '(1000, 1000)'


Is there a command to change the dialogue background window colour including the background colour of the side-panel in the dialogue box?

I'd greatly appreciate any guidance on this.

Thanks for any suggestions and Happy New Year!

Re: Dialogue box window and side-panel background colour

Thanks! I've dropped the above 3 bits of code into my  ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css file, and they worked just fine I'm pleased to say. I only need now to get a highlighting colour in place for when I'm in the the dialogue box and hover over a file with my mouse. Any help would be much appreciated.

filechooser treeview:hover  { color: red; background-color: blue; }

...and:

filechooser row:hover { color: yellow; background-color: lightgreen; }
