Hi, I recently upgraded from GnuCash 2.2.4 to 2.2.6, due to a distribution upgrade from Mandriva 2008.1 to 2009.0.
In the new version of Gnucash, I can no longer edit the date field via the keyboard in some dialogs. So far, I have encountered this problem with these dialogs: - Post Invoice/Bill - Reconcile Dialogs that do work correctly are: - New Invoice/Bill - Pay Invoice/Bill - Date entries in the registry - Price editor Others, I haven't tried yet. Symptom: Using the keyboard to enter a date in a date field of a problematic dialog doesn't work. For example, when I select the date field in the Post Invoice dialog, enter "15.9", I expect the field to translate this into "15.09.2008". Instead I get "1.10.2008". In fact no matter what I enter, the date is always set to "1.10.2008" in this dialog. The "+" and "-" keys don't work either including using them with a modifier key. To be exact: Gnucash receives the keys, but sets the result to "1.10.2008" in all cases. I come to this conclusion because the date field is initially set to "today", for example "14.10.2008". Pressing + or -, sets the field to "1.10.2008" and then it sticks. "1.10.2008" was the date it stuck to yesterday and still today. So it doesn't seem to be related to the current date. The Reconcile dialog sticks at "14.10.2008". I can't tell if this means it sticks to the current date or a fixed date that happens to be today. Workaround: I can set the dates correctly when using the mouse and the pulldown calendar. The strangest thing for me is that not all dialogs are affected. Is there something different in the code for the ill-functioning date controls and the proper functioning ones ? If you need more info, I'll gladly provide this.
