Hi Tom,

Please file this as a bug report as well, to avoid this from getting lost on

Re: [GNC] Command line quotes still not fixed

[Geert Janssens]

What you get is not an error but a warning. In your case it's superfluous 
because as you say 
you don't have currency rate quotes. So it adds some noise for you but should 
otherwise 
work (barring the other bugs we're fixing in the online quote retrieval area).

However for users that would have currency quotes but omitted to set an 
AlphaVantage key, 
not getting the warning would leave them puzzled.

I agree it's currently a bit of an all-or-nothing approach but that can be 
refined eventually. A 
good improvement would be to check whether currency quotes are requested and 
only then 
emit a warning for a missing AlphaVantage API key.

That would be an enhancement request for you to file though.

Regards,

Geert

Adrien's answer was spot on! Thank you Adrien. It is not a bug, but my misuse.

Re: [GNC] Command line quotes still not fixed

[David G. Pickett via gnucash-user]

As it should never have occurred, and should not be a warning, it is a (low 
priority) bug report, not an enhancement.  Assume everything is good but 
validate inputs before using, leads to simpler, cleaner code.  The code should 
complain about the key when it has occasion to use it, not as a warning, but as 
an error.  If it has occasion to use it 30 times, 30 errors until the user 
configures it correctly.

Call it what you will. Regardless both a bug report or an enhancement request

[GNC] defining key strokes

[Ze'ev Ionis]

Is there a wiki page or help page explaining how to define keystrokes?  I used 
to use ctrl-I to import QFX/OFX files, but that's not working in the current 
release (5.0) and I can't find the original page I used to set that up!  
Windows 11.

"Not _only_ on the mailing list," I would have agreed with 100%.

Any bug or enhancement request should go in the bug database, but I
believe there can be value in _limited_ discussion in the mailing list
also. For one thing, it will save time for others who run into the same
issue: they won't have to take time searching for what they might have
been done wrong. And others who might report a bug will know that it's
already been done, which will save time for them and reduce duplicate
reports to the developers.

Re: [GNC] defining key strokes

[Murugan Muruganandam]

You need to edit the file C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash\accelerator-map

go to the QIFImportAction line
Remove the semi colon before the line
Add the key stroke in quotes as below
 (gtk_accel_path "/gnc-plugin-qif-import-actions/QIFImportAction" 
"l")


restart GNUCash and you should see the key binding

[GNC] Balance Forecast End Date

[Tom Veik]

I have a question about the dates used for Balance Forecast.

Start Date allows me to use today, that works well for me.  But for End 
Date, I'd like to use Today + 2 months.  The selections available don't 
allow that.


Are there any options available that would allow me to add an item to 
that End Date list?  Or any other way to achieve that?

Re: [GNC] defining key strokes

[David H]

To be honest I've been wondering why I've lost a few shortcut keys on both
macOS and Win 10/11 using version 5.0 and I think they were also missing
in 4.14 when I installed that version first. I have shortcut keys on the
View Menu set as follows - Basic Ledger = b , Auto-Split Ledger =
s , Transaction Journal = j but these don't even show up on the
menu any longer on both macOS and Win 10/11.

My macOS accelerator-map file is in /Users//Library/Application
Support/Gnucash and has been there untouched since 2018 however when
displaying the "Gnucash >> About Gnucash" popup it displays the path as
/Users//Library/Application Support/GnuCash which may be an issue
as on macOS and linux I assume Gnucash is not equal to GnuCash.  Clicking
on the file path link in the popup just displays "GnuCash could not find
the linked document" error.

I did also find the environment file in
Applications/GnuCash/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources.etc.gnucash and
changed XDG_CONFIG_HOME={HOME}/Library/Application Support/GnuCash/config
to XDG_CONFIG_HOME={HOME}/Library/Application Support/Gnucash/config and
restarted Gnucash but this also had no apparent affect.

For better or for worse I just assumed to date that some path may have been
changed in the 4.14 / 5.0 release and it's just ignoring my
accelerator-map file altogether.

Cheers David H.

Re: [GNC] defining key strokes

[Ken Farley]

I'm still running 4.13 on MacOS, haven't updated yet. I, too notice when 
I check the "About" settings, I see GnuCash in the directory 
specifications, but the actual directory on the file system ends with 
"Gnucash", in other words, no "GnuCash". I don't really use key 
mappings, but do have extensive GTK formatting applied to the interface 
and it is working just fine. This though, as you stated, on a Unix based 
system like MacOS, GnuCash is not equal to Gnucash. Unlike windows based 
systems.


I guess I have a couple of ideas:

(1) maybe try creating a directory in the Application Data directory 
that is spelled Gnucash, copy the keymapping file in there and see if 
things work.


(2) Maybe the stuff being displayed in the About window is not actually 
pertinent? Not likely, but maybe? When I click on the GNC_USERCONFIG_DIR 
in the About, which the interface says is user modifiable, I get the 
error message you indicated:"GnuCash could not find the linked 
document", This leads me to believe the stuff in the About display is 
maybe hardcoded, incorrectly, and isn't representative of the actual 
path used by the program. This is just me guessing based upon what's 
happening, hopefully someone with more intimate knowledge of the 
program's operation will clear things up.

Re: [GNC] defining key strokes

[Murugan Muruganandam]

David

the Directory is  /Users//Library/Application Support/GnuCash  (C in 
Caps)
the accelerator map file is present there.  Possibly during the reinstall it 
got overwritten,  if you have a copy of your earlier accelerator map , place 
the file in the directory and restart.
i have cheked both in Mac and Windows, changes made in the file is reflecting 
in the application.

On the about link, i also get the same error message, possibly as Ken said it 
could be a hardcoded or missing quotes as the Application Support directory has 
a space in between, i will raise it in bugs for fixing.

that is spelled Gnucash, copy the keymapping file in there and see if
things work.

(2) Maybe the stuff being displayed in the About window is not actually
pertinent? Not likely, but maybe? When I click on the GNC_USERCONFIG_DIR
in the About, which the interface says is user modifiable, I get the
error message you indicated:"GnuCash could not find the linked
document", This leads me to believe the stuff in the About display is
maybe hardcoded, incorrectly, and isn't representative of the actual
path used by the program. This is just me guessing based upon what's
happening, hopefully someone with more intimate knowledge of the
program's operation will clear things up.

Re: [GNC] defining key strokes

[Ken Farley]

So did the directory specification change for 4.14 and/or 5.0?

I swear my customizations are in

~/Library/Application Support/Gnucash

No capital "C" in there. This is copied directly from my shell window, 
not transcribed by me.


Strange.

Re: [GNC] defining key strokes

[David H]

Hi Murugan,

I've got a whole folder with all the required files in it and like I said
it seemed to work with 4.13 and below :-) I also tried copying the
/Gnucash folder to .../GnuCash in Finder but got an error as it said it
already exists.  I couldn't see it in the terminal however even with hidden
files shown.  Clicking on the link and getting the no doc error is also
telling me it's looking for .../GnuCash.   At this point I gave up as it
isn't yet bothering me overly :-)

Cheers David H.

Re: [GNC] Balance Forecast End Date

You can select a specific date, but that's about it.

Start Date allows me to use today, that works well for me.  But for End

Are there any options available that would allow me to add an item to

use the terminal to move to the folder
cd "/Users//Library/Application Support/GnuCash"

or
cd /Users//Library/Application\ Support/GnuCash

you will find the directory and the accelerator map there. good luck

[GNC] Input validation issue on investment accounts when changing number format.

[S. John Banner via gnucash-user]

I recently moved countries from the Netherlands (which uses a number format 
like "1.234,56") to Portugal (which uses a number format like "1,234.56"), and 
for completeness, at the same time I moved from a Windows PC to a Mac M1. 
Everything seems to have moved over just fine, I can use the Portuguese number 
convention everywhere, except that when I try to buy/sell shares from my 
investment account, I can't enter a fractional amount of shares - well, not 
simply. The input field insists that I use a "," for the decimal separator, 
then strips it out because the system decimal separator is a "." giving a large 
whole number of shares rather than a smaller fractional number. Everything 
displays correctly, except while I am editing a number in that specific column 
(in all the accounts I have tried).
I can actually work around this, by entering something like "1234/1000" when I 
want "1.234", and that works correctly, but it's a silly way to have to do the 
entry.

I did try "fix accounts", on the off chance that might help, but no difference.

This is using Build ID: 4.13+(2022-12-17) on my new Mac M1. If someone knows 
how to fix this, that would be great, but I expect it will have to wait for a 
bug fix.

Re: [GNC] defining key strokes

[Larry Baldwin]

Very helpful message(s) on defining keystrokes, as I now have a keystroke setup 
to expand/ show the splits on a transaction versus selecting the icon via 
trackpad.


I have a number of reports I reference throughout a session and wondering if 
its possible to setup a keystroke to activate the  Reports -> Saved Report 
Configurations  window? 

I don't see an entry in the accelerator map file for 'Saved Report 
Configurations'.

Re: [GNC] defining key strokes

[Ken Farley]

Turns out MacOS shows directories with specific cases, but if you cd 
down one with different case characters it kind of does an "alias on the 
fly". If I cd using "GNUCASH" or "GNUcash" or whatever mix of characters 
I chose (i.e. "GnUcAsH") it will cd into the directory just fine and 
spit back the new character string if I issue a "pwd" command. MacOS has 
apparently changed what I considered normal behavior, likely to 
accommodate someone, maybe Windows users? I don't know. Weird.

Haha yes I've just found the same result using Murugan's suggestion to try cd
"/Users//Library/Application Support/GnuCash" that and cd
"/Users//Library/Application Support/Gnucash" end up in the exact
same folder.

You don't have decimal places set to zero or perhaps smallest fraction set

hi Larry

for reports GNU uses GUID for the direction.  in your case it will be

4d3dcdc8890b11df99dd94cddfd72085

search this in the accelerator map file and enable it by deleting the preceding 
semi colon and assigning a key

for other reports, please refer the below link

Re: [GNC] Input validation issue on investment accounts when changing number format.

[Murugan Muruganandam]

hi John

number format in portugal is 1.234,56 so i think you typed it in reverse

on fractional shares, please go the security editor and check if the security 
allows fractions
Then check the account property check if smallest fraction is selected as Use
