Correct, 4.14 did not get any new features, but did get most of the bug
fixes that went into 5.0. (though not all)
I too like it so far, and have already made plans to use it in cleaning
up spelling variations.
But I do understand how some cases would be not as easy or friendly.
Overall, I e
I've been using Gnucash since early 2010 so I guess that qualifies me as an
experienced user. Not having read the release docs I was surprised when it
first popped up but I'm liking it so far and it's quite good at identifying
inconsistencies in past entries :-) If you don't like it, stick with 4

While that is a short term solution, it may have negative consequences. It
eliminates the correct match from the list of matches. Further your
solution will likely add the matching string ONG for future
entries and the entry may cause formatting (alignment on initial visible
character) annoyances
Dale,
Typing 2 spaces to cater for the matches to "ong " with a trailing space
works for me in that specific case, of course if you have no matches that
end with ong and a trailing space only one space is required.

That is exactly what I want. The list includes Amanda Szongo, all
possibities including words such as long, e.g., long term care. The
highlighted entry is Amand Szongo so I cannot just hit tab. How do I move
the cursor off the description ? I d
I also like this feature, a nice surprise when I started entering a new txn
and it popped up - shows me where I've rearranged payee details
inadvertently. Being as pedantic as I am, it's now given me extra work
because I now feel obliged to go back and sort out the differences :-)
Thanks to John
To reduce the number of matches just keep typing.

I also disagree; I have only used 5.0 for a few entries; it will get a good
workout tomorrow, but I can see it saving typing. Currently, it's a bit of
a surprise to see the list pop up, but I imagine I'll get used to it. I

Once the correct payee is highlighted, simply tab to the next field, and 5.0
will fill it in as you desire. Also note that you may arrow up and down during
the data entry to select your desired payee, and then click tab.
I have a few payees that are very similar, but are long, so the number of
I disagree. I like the new feature. I often have several entries that start
similarly. Before I would have to type a lot of characters until I got to the
point where they differed. Now I just start typing and it brings up all of them
for me to choose with a couple of touches on the down arrow.
