Re: [GNC] Build on 18.04

[Roger Miskowicz]

Great point Stephen, I had forgotten that I had to remove all files from
the build directory first.

I renamed the icon folder and executed sudo make install and the icon
folder was recreated.

Re: [GNC] Change Reconcile Starting Balance

[Roger Miskowicz]

Not sure what you mean but here is the dialog box.




Because there is a difference I have to cancel and start again.

Is there any that I can force all transactions in the account to be
unreconciled?

[GNC] Change Reconcile Starting Balance

[Roger Miskowicz]

I am using GC Version 3.2 and trying to reconcile my Credit Card Account
which I started at the beginning of the year with an opening balance.

I would like to reconcile the account from the opening balance but I don't
know how to set the 'starting balance' which happens to be some number that
doesn't seem relevant.

Can the 'starting balance' in 'reconcile' be manuallly set, and if so, how?

Thanks Colin.

Is there anyway I can clear all reconcilation of the the account and start
again from scratch?

Re: [GNC] Change Reconcile Starting Balance

[Roger Miskowicz]

At the beginning of the account I did:

2017-12-31  Opening Balance:  1,691.19

Then with no other transactions I Reconciled with end date 2018-01-01 which
yielded the following result:

 Statement Date: 2018-01-01
Starting Balance:1,798.89
  Ending Balance:   1,691.19
Reconciled Balance:   1,798.89
  Difference: -107.70

With only one entry shouldn't all the balances be identical?

Anyway, in this case I would like to be able to set the starting balance to
1,691.19 then I believe the reconcile might work as I expect?

Am I misunderstanding something?

Re: [GNC] Build on 18.04

[Roger Miskowicz]

I have GC3.2 on two 16.04 linux systems and in one build I have
install_manifest.txt which includes the 'icons' directory and in the other
the install_manifest.txt does not exist (in this one the icons files were
installed months earlier so not part of my latest install).


I just rebuilt GC3.2 on 16.04 using:

mkdir build
cd build

cmake -D WITH_AQBANKING=OFF -D WITH_OFX=OFF ../gnucash
cmake ..

make

and the install_manifest.txt include the 'icons' directory.


Hope this helps, let me know if you would like to try something else.

Roger

Re: [GNC] Build on 18.04

[Roger Miskowicz]

in 16.04 and GC3.2 using:

$ locate gnc-account-report

I found:

/usr/local/share/gnucash/icons/hicolor/16x16/actions/gnc-account-report.png
/usr/local/share/gnucash/icons/hicolor/24x24/actions/gnc-account-report.png

Are these files found in 18.04?

Re: [GNC] Build on 18.04

[Roger Miskowicz]

Hi Colin,

No idea, but from the 'build' directory I did:

$  grep -r "gnucash/icons" *
to get:

data/pixmaps/cmake_install.cmake:  file(INSTALL DESTINATION
"${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/share/gnucash/icons" TYPE DIRECTORY FILES
"/home/roger/Projects/Gnucash/master/gnucash/data/pixmaps/hicolor" REGEX
".*/apps.*" EXCLUDE)
install_manifest.txt:/usr/local/share/gnucash/icons/hicolor/24x24/actions/gnc-account-edit.png
install_manifest.txt:/usr/local/share/gnucash/icons/hicolor/24x24/actions/gnc-account-new.png
. plus a bunch more

The '/home/roger/Projects/Gnucash/master/gnucash/data/pixmaps/hicolor'
folder contains the icons that appear to contain the images to be copied to
the ..gnucash/icon folders.

Hope this helps,
  Roger

Keyboard Shortcuts Additions in Linux

[Roger Miskowicz]

I wanted to add ctrl-b to reconcile and discovered that in:

https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Keyboard_Shortcuts#Modifying_
Keyboard_Shortcuts

The following text is incorrect in that it doesn't work on my Linux:

Linux Kilo 4.10.1-041001-generic #201702260735 SMP Sun Feb 26 12:36:48 UTC
2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS

"Accelerators

Under *Linux* hot keys can be created or reassignated. Open a terminal and
type:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface can-change-accels true"


However, editing

*~/.gnucash/accelerator-map*

did work by changing a line to:

 (gtk_accel_path
"/GncPluginPageRegisterActions/ActionsReconcileAction"
"b")

Re: How to Manually Track a Collection of Stocks & Stuff Combined into a Single Share

[Roger Miskowicz]

Thanks Tim, that is the same as my situation and I like your solution.  I
am not worried about tax time as I just need to have a general idea I can
use for a sort of sanity check.  I will try your solution in parallel.

Re: Is "Transfer" same as making a "Journal Entry"

[Roger Miskowicz]

Thanks Adrien,

I have income and also make monthly withdrawal from an investment account.
In the Budget I enter Income and Transfer say (-$1,000)  from my Investment
account and the Monthly Total in the Budget seems to be okay.

I want the Total to be the difference between net income and net expenses
and I think it does that where on the Budget Spread Sheet it appears the
Monthly Total = Income - Expenses -Transfers.

I am not sure I really understand what is going on but it seems to give me
the results for which I was looking.

How to Manually Track a Collection of Stocks & Stuff Combined into a Single Share

[Roger Miskowicz]

I have an Investment Account which is a collection of stocks, certificates,
cash etc in two currencies.  I can get a report that tells me in my local
currency the current value of everything.

I would like to create a stock, fund, or whatever appropriate with 1 share
for which  I can manually update a single price representing the current
value of the entire collection.

Using the online guide I have tried creating a fund or stock but I don't
understand the process and can't seem to get it to work and even
ocassionally crashing gnucash.

I think I would like something such as:

Investment
  Stocks
myStock  (I would like to manually update the price of a single share.)


I am using gucash 2.6.12 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

I would appreciate it if someone can suggest a way to do this.

Re: How to Manually Track a Collection of Stocks & Stuff Combined into a Single Share

[Roger Miskowicz]

I went through the section 9.5.3 Entering Pre-Existing Stocks for about the
fifth time.  Don't know what I did differently but it now works as
expected.  Before it used to crash when I tried a price update.

Actually it still crashes when I click on Apply instead of Ok when editing
a Price Entry.  (I think, I need to check it out more to determine exactly
what I am doing to cause the crash).

Is there a related bug in 2.6.12?

Re: keyboard shortcut (view double line)

[Roger Miskowicz]

I don't think there is one, but if there is one, it should be specified in:

/home/user/.gnucash/accelerator-map, or
/home/roger/.local/share/gnucash/accelerator-map  (depending on version of
gnucash)

In any case you might be able to use procedure in:

https://superuser.com/questions/1185318/how-do-i-add-a-new-keyboard-shortcut-in-gnucash

to set one up.

Re: Gnucash 2.7.5 Installation

[Roger Miskowicz]

Not sure if I should have started another thread?

Anyway, I am trying to install git clone on a second computer with the same
operating system (Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS) as one where the installation worked.

I checked the dependencies:

sudo apt-get install intltool
sudo apt-get install autoconf automake autotools-dev libsigsegv2 m4
sudo apt-get install libtool libltdl-dev
sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev

sudo apt-get install guile-2.0 guile-2.0-dev
sudo apt-get install swig2.0

sudo apt-get install gtk+3.0
sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev
sudo apt-get install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37
sudo apt-get install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev

cmake -D WITH_AQBANKING=OFF -D WITH_OFX=OFF ../gnucash  finished with no
errors

However, during *make* I can't get it past:

Gnucash 2.7.5 build with OFX

[Roger Miskowicz]

I am trying to build 2.7.5 but there is a problem locating libofx with

cmake -D WITH_AQBANKING=OFF -D WITH_OFX=ON ../gnucash

reports:

--   No package 'libofx' found

I have libofx installed at:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libofx.so.6
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libofx.so.6.0.0

which seemed to work with 2.6.11

My goal is to import qfx files into gnucash 2.7.5 and later.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Roger

Solved.

I needed to make sure old versions were properly deleted.

Gnucash 2.7.5 Installation

[Roger Miskowicz]

I am having difficulty building gnucash 2.7.5 from the latest git clone.

I have modified  by:

adding:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)

changed:
#include 
to:
#include 

I am using:

cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/~/gnucash/gnucash-devel -D
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=~/gnucash ../gnucash

which gives me the following errors:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:5 (file):
  file problem creating directory: /glib-2.0/schemas


-- Performing Test have_mod_mask
-- Performing Test have_mod_mask - Failed
CMake Error at gnome/CMakeLists.txt:59 (gnc_add_swig_guile_command):
  Unknown CMake command "gnc_add_swig_guile_command".

My OS is: Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS

I would appreciate any help in addressing these errors as well as any
related guidance for building 2.7.5.

Roger

[Roger Miskowicz]

Thanks John, I looked at that line several times and didn't notice the '/'.

Now using:

cmake   ..

the output seems fine except for:

-- Performing Test have_mod_mask - Failed

Even so, I tried 'make' with the following failure:

I am guessing I need to fix:

but have no idea how.

I have checked that all the following are installed, note I am not sure it
is important but I have swig3.0:

sudo apt-get install intltool
sudo apt-get install autoconf automake autotools-dev libsigsegv2 m4
sudo apt-get install libtool libltdl-dev
sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev
sudo apt-get install icu-devtools libicu-dev
sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev
sudo apt-get install guile-2.0 guile-2.0-dev
sudo apt-get install swig2.0 *** here I have swig3.0 ***
sudo apt-get install libxml++2.6-dev
sudo apt-get install libxslt1-dev
sudo apt-get install xsltproc
sudo apt-get install libgtest-dev
sudo apt-get install google-mock
sudo apt-get install gtk+3.0
sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev
sudo apt-get install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-37
sudo apt-get install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev


Again, I would appreciate your support,

Regards,
  Roger

Re: [GNC] No Maximise button on 3.3 in Ubuntu 18.10

[Roger Miskowicz]

I tried what I think you said in 18.04 and 3.35 can not shrink to where
there is a horizontal scroll bar.  The Maximize '+' button is there
regardless whether the tabs are at the top or right side.

Just to ensure we're talking about the same button.  In Xubuntu 18.04 I
don't have the Maximize button as displayed by Alt-Touch instead at the top
right I just have '-+x' which seems to be what I have in all my
applications.  The '+' toggles maximize or not maximize.

Re: [GNC] No Maximise button on 3.3 in Ubuntu 18.10

[Roger Miskowicz]

Seems ok in Build ID: git 3.3-5-g820cd842f+ (2018-10-06) on Ubuntu 18.04
which you may have already tried.  I have not installed 18.10 yet.  Is it
there for other applications or with Alt-Space?
