As I stated previously, the developers want want no entry to reflect the default. In this case, the default preference is to display zero balance accounts. Your alternative requires a value for the default (Display zero balance accounts is checked for the default), whereas the existing setting does not require a value for the default (Display zero balance accounts does not require a value for the default).
You can argue with the decision behind this, but I don't think you'll get very far. It's been part of the Gnucash fabric for a long time. -------- Original Message -------- From: flywire <flywi...@gmail.com> Sent: Wed Nov 24 17:15:47 EST 2021 To: gnucash-devel <gnucash-devel@gnucash.org> Subject: Re: [GNC-dev] Omit zero balance figures Vs Show zero balances Probably clearer to demonstrate same default functionality with different user interface: * Default is Off with On to Omit - double negative ?? * Alternative default is On with Off to Omit - consistent and logical on a *Display* tab ??
