I am very new to Gnucash and I have not been able to find answers to
questions which I think possible ought to have easy answers.

1 Is there a way to suppress display of accounts with a zero balance in the
Balance Sheet and Income Statement?
2  How do I display either statement with a specific end date?  For
example, today is 7March and I want to provide reports as at 29February.
The standard Income statement shows that it covers 1Jan20 to 30Jun20 and
the Balance Sheet is at 30Jun20.  The accounting year is 1Jul19 to 30Jun20.

These two questions indicate a fundamental "new user" problem. A problem that goes deeper than just these two questions.

For each gnucash report that you want to use, you should explore ALL of the report options available to you. It is not just that under options you will see THESE things that you want to change, but all sorts of other things you can specify.

But there is some preliminary stuff you should know about the process. When you tell gnucash to produce the report, it will do so with default options. You then use Edit => Report Options to change the options that you want for this running of the report. In other words, the report has to exist before you choose options for it. A moment's thought should explain why you don't pick options and then open the report << how would gnucash know WHICH report you meant those options to apply to >>
