I don't think you'd have to show it as a sell to cash, just open the split dialog and enter the shares,  sell on one line, buy on the other. On 12/10/19 7:11 PM, Heide Wang wrote: I have stocks in two different account. if I need to transfer the investments (stocks) from one account to

[GNC] Enhanced Jump feature proposal

2019-12-12 Thread David Carlson
I finally got around to writing up a specification for an enhanced jump feature that would allow jumping to transactions with transfer accounts not only to the transaction in the transfer account's home account windows, but to the same transaction in currently open special windows such as the

Re: [GNC] Invoice date field starts too narrow

My experience is limited to register displays in releases up to 2.6.19, so I do not expect details to be identical. GnuCash uses variable width fonts so the digit one is less wide than other digits. Any date with a one in it is less wide than other dates, and about a third of all dates have

How would the code know how wide the entire date is when it may take months to see a date with all wide digits when only selected dates appear. Date field also randomly expands when that pesky calendar widget appears. Value fields at least seem to get properly fitted and. Stay fitted for a long

Gnucash has been 64-bit for some time. 3.7 will work fine. I’m using it now on Catalina. Note, you don’t ever have to upgrade MacOS on their schedule. Just dismiss the notices and proceed when you are ready. Regards, Adrien > On Dec 12, 2019 w50d346, at 11:22 AM, Gerry Starnes > wrote: > >

2019-12-12 Thread Adrien Monteleone
I just tested this on a new invoice. Sure enough, the column does shrink to fit, but it doesn’t take into account the down arrow calendar widget which overlays the date. This is a tough design choice. Should the widget have forced padding? If so, then people with not as wide screens will

[GNC] Is v 3.7 64-bit?

I am being pushed reluctantly but inevitably by Apple to upgrade to Catalina. I cannot find a reference as to whether v 3.7 is 64-bit or if there is a compliant version. The system information shows what I have installed as "legacy" 32-bit so is not compatible. Any guidance is appreciated. GS

Double-clicking a column header sizes it to fit the contents. (at least for me) This means my Date column shrunk slightly because I had some padding. But doing this on the Description column didn’t cause it to adjust to fit the window, it caused it to expand and gave me a scroll bar that wasn’t

Axel, Just to confirm that you're not going crazy, I've seen the same behavior on the date field for a long time. As you describe, the date field width is optimized for display without the drop down triangle; the triangle causes erroneous display as you describe. I seem to fecal that the

Hi Greg, Thanks for the suggestion. Double-clicking on the date header collapses the column even further, so that the entire day part of the date (I use format day.month.year) on the bottom line disappears off the left side of the screen. :-( - Axel — Axel Essbaum a...@essbaum.com > On

No attachment here either, and not a final solution, but I think the invoice columns auto size if you double click on the column header. Double click any column header that's over a too narrow column first, then double click the header over the description column and it will give up enough of any
