Second look: more comments: 1) In New Budget Category setup, the period column says monthy:10, even though I selected the 1st of the month in previous window. 2) If there is some way to modify existing categories, I can't find it. Oh, apparently, that's what "open" does. Clicking 'cancel' in "modify category" crashed gnucash. 3) Clicking "new category" opens a window titled "modify category". Clicking 'cancel' in "modify category" crashes gnucash. 4) Clicking "open" in "new category" window throws: (gnucash:3076): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkentry.c: line 3545 (gtk_entry_set_text): assertion `text != NULL' failed Related Accouts: 0 (gnucash:3076): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid cast from `GncTreeModelAccount' to `GtkTreeModelSort' (gnucash:3076): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtktreemodelsort.c: line 2016 (gtk_tree_model_sort_get_model): assertion `GTK_IS_TREE_MODEL_SORT (tree_model)' failed 5) Clicking "ok" in "modify category" window also crashes gnucash. 6) Similar crashes in "modify category" window opened from "budget setup" tab. 7) Important: This seems like essential functionality: amounts I enter in "balance budget" tab don't show up in "track budget" planned column, or anywhere else. 8) [FIXED] Budgets remain alive even when budget workbench is closed and reopened. They also retain previous settings. 9) "delete" budget does nothing. -chris > 1) It compiles! > 2) When I click on new budget the "new budget 'druid'" opens _behind_ > the budget list.
