Re: [GNC] Transparent background on selected Transfer choice

[Chris Good]

Hi David(s),

 

David Carlson,

Did you see https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797493#c4 which mentions 
themes?

I tested this in Windows 10 and could not duplicate it.

 

I did duplicate this problem in Ubuntu 20.04 and found a couple of work-arounds.

Please see

https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797493#c6

 

Regards,

Chris Good

I did not see anything about themes in that bug report 
https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797493 except in a reference to 
another bug report where the user admitted to choosing a non-standard desktop 
theme.  I did see the problem myself briefly recently but now I forgot when.  I 
suspect that I may have seen it on Windows rather than Linux.  Tht referenced 
bug report stated that when the user switched to the Adwaita theme (which, 
IIRC, is the default theme for several Linux desktops) the problem disappeared. 
 Thus IMHO the theme concern does not apply to 797493

 

I don't change desktop themes often, if ever or themes for GnuCash, I leave it 
as 'out of the box', and I believe if David Pickett did too, then I think it is 
a GnuCash bug

Hi David,

This looks like https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797493 which is a 
problem with your theme.

[GNC] cannot open "Report Options" for "Balance Sheet" anymore

[Jacque]

I cannot open "Report Options" for "Balance  Sheet" anymore. Whether I 
click it from menu level button or click it from under the "Edit" top 
level menu, it won't open  anymore for me in order to change reporting 
dates.


Anyone have any ideas?

Re: [GNC] Transparent background on selected Transfer choice

[Eric Coates via gnucash-user]

Hi
Sorry to disagree!
I have been having his problem on Ubuntu 20.10 for some time. Yesterday 
evening I tried the workarounds in the bug report with no discernable 
effect.
Today I have done the upgrade to 21.04, the effect was still apparent, 
the workarounds still had no effect.


Also (and this is probably not a Gnucash problem) Gnome Tweaks behaves 
very oddly , uninstalling and reinstalling had no effect.
"Oddly" here means that trying to access the drop down lists on the 
Appearance tab does not reveal any other alternatives - it seems to be 
stuck on the theme set in Ubuntu Settings. - I'm sure that in the 
historic past this was not the case. There are other oddities as well. 
Research is required - of me.


Take care
Eric

Re: [GNC] cannot open "Report Options" for "Balance Sheet" anymore

[Jacque]

LOL.  Kindly disregard.  The window opened on an 8th monitor which was 
not on the desk.  Not sure why it chose that monitor to unleash my 
frustration but I enjoyed a hearty laugh when I walked around the desk 
and saw it opened up all by its lonesome.

David + Eric (twistedw...@talktalk.net), are you restarting GnuCash after

[GNC] multi-split CSV import

[mike823]

Is there a way to create a multi-split transaction using "import transactions
from CSV" like the one in the picture? How should the csv record look like?
TIA.

Re: [GNC] Interface Issues

8) [Transaction] Report, Sorting tab options at bottom of form should be on
Display tab.
9) [Transaction] Report, Sorting tab /Show subtotals only (hide
transactional data)/ is very useful but headings should be normal text at
this level.

Re: [GNC] Interface Issues

[David Carlson]

I think there are a huge number of serious bugs, not to mention previously
registered enhancement requests that IMHO would take priority over those
requests even if the developers were to take them seriously.  They would
love some assistance if you can help.

Re: [GNC] multi-split CSV import

[David Cousens]

There is.
The best way to get a handle on a format is to use the Export transaction
with the GnuCash export format selecting the multiline option and export
some multisplit transactions into a csv file and then examine it with a text
editor. The common transaction information is missing in the subsequent
lines (",,,etc") and only the the account split information will be present.
T

he GnuuCash export format also contains thing s like the account and
transaction uuids which it isn't necessary to have present when importing
data as the importer will map account names in the import records onto the
internal GnuCash accounts the first time they are encountered in imported
data and create a permanent mapping.

A typical exported record looks like
Date,Transaction ID,Number,Description,Notes,Commodity/Currency,Void
Reason,Action,Memo,Full Account Name,Account Name,Amount With Sym,Amount
Num.,Reconcile,Reconcile Date,Rate/Price

05/04/18,0d5021ad07e2493999398005679aeaa9,,BELVEDERE HOTEL  Value Date:
28/03/2018,OFX ext. info: |Trans type:Generic
debit,CURRENCY::AUD,,,BELVEDERE HOTEL Value Date: 28/03/2018,Assets:Current
Assets:Checking Account,Checking Account,-$10.40,-10.40,c,,1.00
,Expenses:Dining,Dining,$10.40,10.40,n,,1.00

the minimum fields you need to have in an imported record from memory are 
Date, Description,Account Name, Amount

The second line with the  " " is the second account for a 2 split
transaction in this case and for >2 splits there will be an additional
similar line for each split. 

David
