The major pain, for me at least, is not so much the ^F but the constant
changing of the 'Find Transaction' options from 'Description' to 'Value'
It's the only way I've used ^F so far - Value and has credits or debits
-> equal to. I can see that flexibility of 'Find Transaction' will be
very useful at some time. In my current marathon accounting balancing
sessions (Still converting from Quicken*) I'm sure I've entered ^F
nearly a hundred times or more.
How about something like some combinations of these;
- A Boolean check box to save the options on close in the "Find
Transaction' window.
-- Perhaps another check box for windows to remain open.
- A preference to save the last used options in the 'Find Transaction'
window.
- An additional 'quick find' initiated by ^F that uses the value->has
credits or debits->equal to and move the full find to menu initiated only.
* ProTip; Don't procrastinate more than three months to import new .OFX
transactions as many institutions only save three months available online.

I would think having to move the window around/send it to the background (and
then bring it up front again when you need it) is more of a pain than hitting
^F / ⌘F.
Remember, GnuCash has to accommodate many screen sizes, not just people with
1080 and larger WXGA displays that have the room to keep a Find dialog open
next to the main window. Some people are using this app on netbooks.
But if it is simple enough to implement, I could see that it would be a nice
option. (and I have plenty of screen space, so I’d be happy to have it as well)

Adrien

I would very much like the search window to remember the previous
settings when it is re-opened. Very often I find myself just making a
small change and it is a pain to have to re-enter it.
