Hi, Based on some issues I encountered today with posting invoices (see also the irc logs for more details), I have done some minor gui improvements in the business dialogs. They don't solve my post problem at the core (that would require more indepth programming knowledge), but they help improve visibility.
1. The post dialog Current situation: the information in the "Post to account" field is not completely visible. Widening the dialog doesn't help, because the field has a fixed with and doesn't expand. New situation: when the dialog expands, the variable fields expand with it. This allows for the "Post to account" to grow until the full account text is visible. 2. Search dialog Current situation: sometimes when the search returns a lot of results, a lot of scrolling is required to get to the desired result. Increasing the size of the search dialog doesn't help, because the result part of the dialog has a fixed height. New situation: I have added a split pane widget (along with some changes to keep the end result tidy). With this, the user can increase the size of the result part independently from the search criteria part. Currently, the search criteria part is about one criterium high. This can still be changed if needed. I have attached two diff files (generated with svn diff) for the affected glade files. I hope you guys find the modifications useful. Regards, Geert
