Using GnuCash 2.5.1 I opened a file that I have been editing forever with older versions of Gnucash. That file has many register windows left open from previous use. In retrospect I was confused by thinking that all those windows were in the new register view because I no longer saw any option to open then in the new register2 view but there was an option to open in the old view.
(When I mention the old behavior my intent is simply to use it as a reference for comparison.) Then, there was a search window created by the since last run assistant, so from there I selected a transaction, right clicked and selected the Schedule option. This opened the scheduled transaction (I think) in the new view. When I tried to edit it GnuCash crashed. I restarted GnuCash, went to the chart of accounts, created a new sub-account of a fixed asset account. Then I opened the fixed asset account in the sub-account view(not Old Sub-account view). There were no red areas other than the highlighted field that alternates between blue and red background depending on whether I am actively editing to show the status of the highlight or focus, or whatever in this particular theme. It was possible to start an edit but again GnuCash crashed. If the vertical line was supposed to be red, it definitely was not. I thought that both of those incidents were artifacts of incomplete code updates to those types of registers in the new view, since this is a work in progress, so I only mentioned them in passing. Now I have re-installed 2.5.1 and re-opened that same file. I returned to the same asset account and re-opened it in the sub-account view. It does appear to be in the register2 view judging by the different titles. there is no red anywhere on the page other than a few negative numbers here and there. It appears that I can edit some fields if I left click on them, but I have not tried to commit an edit yet. Now in a register2 view of a credit card account transaction that has multiple split lines in that account, as you pointed out, the transaction does only appear once in the Auto-split view. However, if I right click on it and select the choice 'Schedule..' the scheduled transaction does open in the register2 view. There is no scheduled->new2 or edit2 option in the right click drop-down list. Attempting an edit again crashed Gnucash. I agree that we need to be on the same page so I am trying to describe my testing as completely as possible. Otherwise we are both spinning our wheels. Is this enough for now? David C
