Sounds like a preference issue.

Check Preferences > Numbers, Date & Time > Automatic decimal point, and turn it off if it is checked. (you can also alter the number of decimal places in the very next preference)

If you don't have that preference turned on (checked) then something else is at play.

I don't recall if that preference is on by default. I have had it off as long as I can recall (several years) and GnuCash is generally not in the habit of changing your preferences on upgrade, so if it was off before, it should still be off.

Plus, if I enter a value and tab or shift-tab, it divides it by 100.  If I 
enter a number, I expect it to tay put unless there is a dialog asking my 
permission to change it!!

I am trying to enter my RMD sales of securities, and when I enter the value, 
price or shares it gets divided by 100 gratuitously with no dialog, and if I 
adjust all three numbers and accept a price change, it divides other numbers 
gratuitously.  This is very counter-intuitive, frustrating, time-wasting!  If 
the 3 numbers do not agree and I choose a price recalculate, my entered shares 
and value should be unchanged!  This is such a bad upgrade from past behaviors!
