New Features

        • The matcher window columns are changed from R to C and from U+R to 
U+C, reflecting that the matcher marks transactions cleared but doesn't 
reconcile them. (Bug 797338)
        • OFX imports having balance information will now offer to immediately 
reconcile, passing the balance information in the file to the reconcile info.
        • Improve quickfill in the account pickers to filter the choices based 
on any part of the name.
        • The GnuCash widget hierarchy for CSS has been revised to be more 
consistent with Gtk practice. You may need to spend some time with the 
GtkInspector to get your custom CSS back the way you like it.
        • When creating a new account hierarchy it's now possible to load 
account templates from locales other than the one set for the user interface. 
(Bug 797472)
        • New Account - Online Account match list to the Import Map Editor.

commodity from the imported split if the import information includes the 
commodity.
        • Ellipsize the Description and Memo fields in the account matcher.
        • Enable adding notes to budgets. (Bug 693180)

date. (Bug 782455)
        • The Accounts page has a new optional column for the hidden property 
to make it easier to toggle it. Note that in order to see hidden accounts you 
must still enable that in the Filter by... dialog. (Bug 797486)
        • The Customer, Vender, and Employee overviews have a process-payment 
toolbar. (Bug 797605).
        • Account codes may now optionally be displayed in the Budget Tree 
View. (Bug 797489).
New/Revised Reports

        • Owner Report
Significant Code Changes

        • The source directories have been rearranged and most of the loadable 
modules (e.g. libgncmod-engine.so) are now normal dynamic libraries 
(libgnc-engine.so), shorn of their gnc-module adapters. Make sure that you 
clean and rebuild your build directory.
        • All functions marked as deprecated in 3.x are now removed. If you 
have custom reports be sure to examine gnucash.trace for deprecation warnings 
and update your reports before trying them in GnuCash 3.91.
        • libgncmod-generic-import is now libgnc-generic-import.
        • Scheme no longer uses libgncmodule, always do (use-modules (gnucash 
foo))
        • Autocompletion improvements for the transfer-account field.
        • New test for invalid mappings for online accounts and a dialog to fix 
them.
        • jqplot is replaced by chartjs.
        • Separate most Guile binding code from the code that it wraps. It's 
now located in bindings/guile.
        • Improve Google test integration in cmake. CMake now requires only 
GTEST_ROOT and only when cmake isn't able to find Google test without help.Unit 
tests for Scheme code with SRFI64.
Deprecations (will be removed in GnuCash 5.0

        • gnc:substring-replace-from-to
Between 3.10 and 3.902, the following bugfixes were accomplished. Some of these 
will also be fixed in GnuCash 3.11, some are for 4.0 only.

        • Bug 693180 - Add notes to budgeting values
        • Bug 773198 - Move several reports to Example directory/menu
        • Bug 773199 - Rename and rebuild Welcome to GnuCash Report
        • Bug 773200 - Rename Sample & Custom Report Group
        • Bug 782455 - Modify Add Reversing Transaction feature
        • Bug 797114 - Fixing an SX due to deleted account stuck in an error 
loop
        • Bug 797270 - Budget Chart report - translation of header and dates
        • Bug 797338 - Change "U+R" and "R" labels to "U+C" and "C" in Import 
matcher
        • Bug 797351 - General ledger register transaction becomes "zombie" 
after deletion
        • Bug 797415 - cannot build without libsecret-1-dev
        • Bug 797472 - Add option to choose account templates
        • Bug 797485 - Show account hidden column on CoA.
        • Bug 797486 - Add dialog to cascade placeholder and hidden
        • Bug 797489 - No option to use account codes in Budget View - Part2
Add option to allow the account code column to be shown in the budget tree view 
and as such the account tree view can be sorted by this column

        • Bug 797605 - RFE: Customer/Vendor/Employee Overview should also have 
"Process Payment" toolbar
        • Bug 797612 - Add a dialog to the imap_dialog to show invalid maps
        • Bug 797670 - scheduled transaction editor can remain open when 
switching file, which causes seg fault when later closed
        • Bug 797677 - Price Database Saving Wrong Price for Foreign Currency
        • Bug 797684 - GTK_DEBUG=interactive - Bail out - 
gdk_window_set_cursor_internal
        • Bug 797697 - Enable DEP and ASLR for the Windows build
The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:

        • Fix 3 problems with the scheduled transactions calculations
                • Set a monthly recurrence on the 10th with a start date on the 
20th of this month. The editor correctly shows the next occurrence to be on the 
10th of the following month. The schedule transaction summary dialog 
incorrectly shows the next occurrence to be on the 10th of this month (before 
the start date!)
                • Set a monthly recurrence on the 19th, with a start date on 
the 20th of this month. The editor's calendar marks incorrectly show the next 
occurrence to be on the 19th of this month (before the start date).
                • Set a monthly recurrence on the 18th, with a start date on 
the 20th and an end date on the 17 of the following month. The calendar should 
show no mark, but fails to erase the marks that were present.
        • Fix issue when editing the account tree view notes field
When you try to edit a multiline account notes field in the account tree view 
you end up with just one line with control characters as it is being edited 
with a GtkCellRenderText cell. To fix this I have added a new cell renderer 
based on a text view.

        • Fix failed build of python tests and failed test in 3.10 tarball.
