I’m hoping for less than 6 months from now, but reports don’t display on either 
Windows or Mac right now so we can’t even release 2.7.0 to start the user 
testing cycle until we get that figured out.

Re: Window location

[John Morris]

For what it's worth, I, too, have been bothered by this in the past. For me, 
the main issue is that the report-options window opens on top of the report and 
opens way too small to be particularly useful. Consequently, I have to move and 
resize that window every time I want to change the report options. I have not 
raised this issue before because I have no time to offer to this project and I 
don't see that changing in the near future.

Best,
John

Yeah, it happens on my dual-monitor Mac as well.

For most of the cases it’s a matter of calling “gtk_dialog_set_transient_for()” 
to the parent window before calling gtk_dialog_run(). I’d think that would be a 
pretty straightforward project for you.

RE: Deleting an invoice or credit

[rmomxtx]

Got it. Thanks. Being able to delete an invoice/credit note would be a nice 
feature to see someday.

 

Is there a register where you can see all the invoices or do you have to look 
for them one at a time?

You can't delete a credit note or invoice.

 

But you can edit it, including changing the customer involved and the invoice 
number. So the next time you need an invoice or credit note, you can just reuse 
this practice one instead of generating a new one.

 

You might want to create a customer of "Unused Invoices", and assign the unused 
invoices to them. Then when you need a new invoice, check there first.

Just can't figure out how!

Window location

[Matthew Pounsett]

Hi all.

I work in a bit of an edge case, in that I have a very large desktop (just
shy of 7k pixels wide, over 1.5 meters of physical distance).  The main
gnucash window seems to save its location and always open where it was last
closed.  This is awesome.  However, nearly every other window (I think
probably every single other window, but I'm allowing that maybe there's
something I haven't noticed) opens at the 0,0 desktop coordinate (top
left).  This is way out of my eye line.  And yes, I'm aware this is a first
world problem of the highest order.  :)

Is this a problem anyone else even notices?  If not, I'm fine to suck it up
and deal, but it would be a huge convenience to me if gnucash was able to
save the locations of other windows, or alternatively, open them in the
vicinity of the parent window.

My C knowledge is fairly rudimentary, but I'm a competent programmer in a
few other languages.  I'd be happy to help out with a feature if that seems
like a thing I could reasonably help with, or if the core team doesn't
think it's high priority enough to put on the future feature list.
