I am trying it, it looks like a great trick. It defaulted to 2020 and I picked my own bank a/c, but when I tried to change the dates in the options I got nothing. FWIW, Version 4.2 on Windows 10, Barry On 27/10/2020 14:08, Christopher Lam wrote: The experimental multicolumn reports have a "s

Re: [GNC] Deleting test data

HI, You can simplify this by just doing: File -> Export -> Export Accounts and then File -> Open the new file. There is no need to go into CSV format if you're importing it back into GnuCash. Note that this *ONLY* exports the account tree; if you have business objects (customers/vendors/taxtabl

Derek already explained the errors, but for completeness and future reference: Simply type `gnucash` at the command line. You may see some messages there which might be helpful, otherwise see the wiki about where the tracefile is stored on your system. Regards, Adrien On 10/28/20 11:16 AM,

[GNC] Reverse balance option does not apply to account reports

I am using GnuCash 4.2 with the option to reverse the balance of credit accounts (such as Liability) activated. In the ledger of such an account, GnuCash calculates the balance in the expected manner: Debit transactions decrease the balance. When I create a report of such an account using the R

Please specify the report. I just tried a Transaction Report on my AP account and it works properly. Regards, Adrien On 10/28/20 2:20 PM, p32--- via gnucash-user wrote: I am using GnuCash 4.2 with the option to reverse the balance of credit accounts (such as Liability) activated. In the ledge

Re: [GNC] Reverse balance option does not apply to account reports

Thank you very much for your answer and sorry for the confusion. I can confirm that the Transaction Report handles the Debit and Credit values in the same way the ledger does. My question was related to the Account Report. When I open an account ledger and use the Reports menu to generate an Accou

[GNC] How to turn off report/chart animations in 4.x?

I just starting moving from gnucash-3.11 to 4.2. The animations in report charts and graphs are a little cute the first time you see them, but get annoying (to me) very quickly. Is there any way to turn them off? Permanently, for every report? So that (for example) a bar chart just appears, rat

Re: [GNC] How to turn off report/chart animations in 4.x?

Chartjs animation uses its own options mechanism to disable animation. The animation will be removed in 4.3 onwards. There's no plan to introduce an option to reenable animation. On Thu, 29 Oct 2020, 8:17 am Adrien Monteleone, < adrien.montele...@lusfiber.net> wrote: > Perhaps try setting Options

All right, thank you for giving it a try. I will use a Transaction Report instead. For the sake of completeness, however, I have also filed a bug: https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797993 On Wed, Oct 28, 2020 at 11:36 PM, Adrien Monteleone wrote: > Hmm... > > Okay I tried these: > > Liab
