[GNC-dev] Training
I am very interested in learning the ins and outs of GnuCash. I am also a professional videographer/animator and web developer. I was wondering if there is an interest in creating video tutorials for the various aspects of GnuCash. I think this would be very useful; even if the basics were covered (accounts setup, transaction entry, budget feature, reports, etc.) I would be willing to undertake the videos if I could have another person on the team that got me through the ropes on this. Is there a need for/interest in this? ___ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel

Can’t believe I didn’t remember that. This makes the solution much easier. I’m generally not a fan of table layouts, but being this is tabular data, it’s probably the most semantic approach. In that case, the columns feature of CSS3 wouldn’t come into play. But they will be useful with respect to multi-vs-single column presentation. Setting a 2-column preference would set a CSS rule for 2 columns and then set a rule for the second column data to be in column ‘2’. Each section of the report would have to be its own table for that to work. I don’t think floats are needed.

I should think padding-right rules could be used on the amounts that are right-justified. All of this now makes me curious to start examining the current HTML being generated for reports to see what’s at play.

For reports on the other hand it's not important what Gtk+ implements as the reports are html rendered via webkit (essentially a built-in webbrowser) so the W3C css rules matter here.. > My guess would be to set classes on the accounts for the column position and > set left margin or padding on the classes accordingly.

I don't see an issue for accounts as they are left-justified. I don't know for the right-justified amounts though. People with more html/css experience may want to share their views here.

CSS3 does columns, but I don’t see anything yet looking over the Gtk+ CSS docs to indicate they’ve implemented it. My guess would be to set classes on the accounts for the column position and set left margin or padding on the classes accordingly. (I think Geert mentioned something along these lines in an earlier reply) Having not taken much of a gander at the report code, I certainly don’t know how difficult that would be or if it is even possible.
