I installed GTK+3 separately so I could use the inspector. (it wasn’t launching 
from terminal until then) I always install GnuCash from the dmg via 
Github/Sourceforge. But if that app bundle uses its own libraries anyway then I 
guess it doesn’t matter.

Sorry, I had just hit <return> with an account highlighted. I didn’t do a 
search —apologies for my confusion.

Indeed, I can duplicate both of the OP’s issues (CR & BS) by just typing a 
target account from that tab.

I’m not sure if this is related, but if I bring up a Find Account window (⌘I) 
instead, I can type a name to search, but the <return> key doesn’t execute the 
search, I have to click the [Search] button. With the account I want 
highlighted, <return> doesn’t open the account, (executing the [Jump to] button 
function) but does highlight it in the Account tab, however, a second <return> 
opens the previously highlighted account, not the one highlighted from the 
search. The [Jump to] button does work properly though and the highlighted 
account does properly now open with a <return>. So it seems one cannot use the 
Find Account window with only the keyboard. You are required to click the 
[Search] and [Jump to] buttons.

Should I file that as a separate bug or might this all be the same problem?

Regards,
Adrien
