To clarify:

For anyone not on MacOS, (or on a system that doesn’t support that emoji block 
of characters) you should be able to see the symbols (paper clip icon for 
single associations, and chain-link/URL icon for location associations) but 
only if you have View > Double Line mode turned on.

You should see the icon in the second line (the Notes field is to the left of 
it) in the same column as Reconciliation codes. (‘R’ column)

The field should be labeled ‘A’ for Association in the Header.

If you have Auto-Split view or Transaction Journal view turned on, then you’ll 
see the association icon directly above the reconciliation codes from the 
splits below.


If you are on MacOS, there is a display problem with the section of Unicode 
that contains the icons. So instead, you will see ‘f’ for a single file 
association or ‘w’ for a location association. (not sure why ‘w’ was chosen) 
This is not a GnuCash ‘bug’ or a lack of having the proper font, but rather a 
limitation of the state of GTK integration on MacOS. (as best I understand the 
issue)

If you are using 3.x (not sure when it was introduced) you’ll see the ‘f’ or 
‘w’ respectively.

Adrien
