Re: [GNC-dev] Register text selection + V#3 Windows scroll bars.

This is another behavioral change we got "for free" from Gtk3. Luckily this one is configurable [1] by adding gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = false to the [Settings] section of gtk3's settings.ini file The location of this file is platform dependent. On systems following the Freedesktop

Rather than change the message (which is still a good idea), I think we should in this case fix the messenger--in other words, stop highlighting off screen data elements and stop allowing users to change things they cannot see. David T. On May 22, 2018, at 5:39 AM, David Carlson

Re: [GNC-dev] Register text selection

Sorry I did not explain the third option very well, have a transaction between say "Checking Account" and "Cash in Wallet" with both registers open. Position the cursor on a transaction somewhere in the "Checking Account", go back to the "Cash in Wallet" and edit a transaction between the two and

Re: [GNC-dev] Register text selection

As a concerned user, not a developer, I would vote to drop all preselection. I think it is confusing to users who do not necessarily consider the differences between the various navigation methods as being significant. Further, in the cases where the curser is not visible in the register window,
