Windows 7 does not always show you the fully expanded path. There is a setting that must be made to force Win7 to give you it. I suspect that is why you are seeing some gibberish in the path. Here are the instructions to make the necessary settings to see the full path. 1. Logon to Window

[GNC] CSV import lags and burns CPU; can't report bug

Hi. I'm trying to import transactions from a very simple CSV file, using a default account and a single transfer account in a CSV field. I get to the stage to go from "Transaction Information" where it says "On the following page you will be able to associate each transaction to a category." Eve

GnuCash’s Bugzilla database moved to bugs.gnucash.com several moons ago. I can’t find any similar shortcut for bug filing on MacOS, so this is probably for the Windows version only. (I don’t ever recall seeing it with Linux versions either) You should file a bug on that as well, since it needs

1. Navigate to your home directory. 2. View > Show View Options. (or CMD-J) 3. You’ll see the last option box to “Show Library Folder” 4. Check the box. You might also be able to get to the Library folder directly via SHIFT-CMD-L Regards, Adrien > On Apr 8, 2019, at 4:44 PM, Eric Rathhaus office

Interesting. A little experimentation finds that it's not sufficient to just select the home directory, you must have the home directory as the primary view in Finder. If you're using Icon or List view you can double-click on your home directory to make it primary. If you're in column view you c

Greg, 2.6.21 and 3.x are supposed to be fully file-compatible. Earlier releases in the 2.6 series may not be depending on what 3.x features you use. If you'd prefer to continue the troubleshooting in the bug tracker, file a bug. Regards, John Ralls > On Apr 8, 2019, at 5:40 PM, Greg Feneis w
