My issue is that, yes, I can retreat and go back, but it still freezes after adding 1 character.  I have to retreat and go back for nearly ever single character in my description ... REALLY annoying!!

Hello,

Recently, I've been having a problem entering Descriptions for my
transactions.

At first, I could only enter 3 characters, then it would lock up.

Now I can only enter 1.

All other fields seem to be working just fine.  The only field I'm
having difficulties with is the Description.

I'm using Manjaro an Arch Linux based operating system. The version in
the official repository is 5.3-1.

I have tried uninstalling / reinstalling with no success.

I have spent a great deal of time searching for a way to fix this issue,
but have not even seen someone else having the same issue.

There's something a bit odd about how GnuCash handles text entry in
all fields.  I think it's due to the way it auto-fills the field when
you enter just one or two characters.

On my system most of the issues occur with the Transfer column, it
sometimes locks up in the same way that you're describing for the
Description field.

I have the same problem, but so far, only when entering 'tes' for 'Tesco',
when it just freezes.
I wait a few seconds then click in the line above, then back to the
original and it
works.

Yes, that's a good description of what happens.  One can usually
'retreat' and try again and make it work but it's still rather
annoying.
