Russ, I don't get the grey box, but it won't swipe from right to left. However, it does swipe from left to right, (huh?). Hope this helps with that issue.
On your 2nd "gripe", that would be a nice enhancement or restoration if it used to work that way. In case you are unaware, did you know that if you do CTRL "A" and space it will select all the transactions in that sub window, either "debit" or "credit" and then you can unselect those that didn't clear. It may or may not be faster than the space bar causing it to move down automatically.

I upgrade to Gnucash when I upgrade my Linux system. I've just upgraded to Mint 21 which came with Guncash 4.8. In this edition the edit of any amount now opens a grey box where the number in it is unresponsive to the mouse so if you try to swipe across the field to clear it it doesn't do anything. This is contrary to how all other software since time immemorial behaved. You have to use the keyboard to delete characters. How could the developers think this is an improvement? While griping I will also mention the previous gripe I had. When reconciling I used to use the space bar (I think, it was a long time ago) to fill in the box and automatically move down to the next item. It made reconciling pretty slick. Then it was "upgraded" so it no longer moves down. You either have to use the mouse to fill in the boxes or hit the space bar followed by the down arrow. I complained at the time but the response was a justification which was impossible to understand, which I took to be obfuscation of the fact that it could not be justified. Now after such a long time how about reinstating the previous behaviour? Otherwise great software. Many thanks for the dedication of the developers. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
