[GNC-dev] Is there a way to do right-click on mac os???

2020-05-18 Thread jeanl
Guys, I'm trying GC on macos, and I can't find a way to do a right click. Normally you do right click by Ctrl+click in mac os. But this does not work in GC. Is that an oversight? Is is just my setup? I'm on Catalina with the latest build. Jean. -- Sent from:

What about this question? On a related note, is it expected that an already-cleared transactions should appear in the list of matches, if the "Enable update match action" option isn't on? It seems that it shouldn't but maybe I don't quite understand the match logic... Jean -- Sent from:

[GNC-dev] Confused about where gnc-warnings.h is

Devs, can you explain this to me? I'm completely confused about it. Where is *gnc-warnings.h* supposed to be? On my system it's here: build_xcode/gnucash/gnome-utils/gnc-warnings.h But build_xcode is generated, and not under git. I can't find it anywhere in the src tree... So I really don't

[GNC-dev] Not getting signal, need a bit of help

2020-04-28 Thread jeanl
Devs, As part of launching the reconcile dialog once the matching is done, I'm listening to the response signal from the gnc_ofx_importer_gui (in gnc-ofx-import.c). So right before I launch the GNCImportMainMatcher gnc_ofx_importer_gui I connect to its reponse signal: g_signal_connect (G_OBJECT

Hi Devs, I have code that enables importing multiple OFX in one shot. It's actually *almost* already supported by GC, and required few changes. - The file import dialog needs a new option to allow multiple-file selections - Then there's simply a loop over files using the regular code. This is

For info: https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797670 The solution to this, it seems to me, is to ensure all opened dialogs are closed when another file is opened. I would imagine this already happens for other dialogs, but was omitted for this one? If so, can you guys point me in the right

Devs, Can you point me to something you think needs to be looked at sooner rather than later in the gnucash code? I find that bugzilla does not give a good image of bug priority, but I'm sure you guys have a good idea of what needs to be fixed next. I wouldn't mind helping with that. Thanks, Jean

Guys, When we're in the account list view (the main gnucash page), you can start typing and this will open the account list to the first matching account. This is very convenient to quickly access an account in a large, deep hierarchy. However if the account tree isn't expanded, its leaf
