That's because you haven't sorted by total. It takes one click to select the column, and one more to sort by that column. > - In the main window, it would be comfortable to be able to remove a > column drag&dropping it away with the mouse, at least with a right > button click. The right button click should present the possible columns > list and permit to add a column. You probably know, but just in case: you can do this by selecting the right-most column. Feel free to submit RFE in bugzilla for context menu or drag-n-drop column removal. > - Saving the file is slower than in 1.8.9?

One _very_ helpful (but technical) trick is to attach gdb to the gnucash-bin process (or start it from gdb if you know how) and say: $ (gdb) br g_log $ (gdb) continue [then trigger the warning] $ (gdb) bt > - opening the data file is slower than in 1.8.9?

Please attach that to a bug report, and be sure to describe your gnome library versions. > When the preferences are opened, shouldn't the program be unusable? Why? The general rul is not to force modality unless it's required. [snip] Please file a bug report about the various preferences not moving from 1.8 to 1.9. It may be that we just decide not to bring them forward. > - When gnucash loades the data file, the window is too little, it > appears ugly Please file a bug report with a suggested default window size. > - Preferences: Toolbar style, text besides icons: not all icons show > text Good catch.

I *think* the original motivation for disabling the gui during progress-bar use was re-entrancy problems related to file save/load. If so, myabe there a way to solve that that doesn't also disable the gui during report rendering.

What is this menu command for? The command you're looking for is incorrectly labeled "delete transaction." It actually only deletes the split.

This should work. After all, you bountied it, remember? :) Thanks for the reports. -chris _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
