Re: [GNC] Mass Reconcile
Fred, Ctrl + A Select all content in nearly all computer systems. The multiple selection with a mouse is: Ctrl + Left click Add the line to the selection; Shift + Left click Select all between the current line and the line clicked on; SHift + Up arrow Select one line up from current line; Shift + Down arrow Select one line down from current line. This doesn't work in the main menus but does AFAIK in the Reconcile and the Import Matcher Window. I have usually found with the CTRL-Left Click I have to use it twice, once to activate the multiple selection mode and again to select the item. Once it is activated a single ctrl-click seems to work. Most of these are set in the GTK library and are not GnuCash specific which is likely why they are not listed in the Wiki or guide. I haven't been able to find a reference specific to GTK which defines the key combinations they set and support by default but they do include many of the combinations listed in the references below. The specific key combinations for a given function are also sometimes OS and or distribution dependent ( Super is usually the Windows key). Some common definitions used in many computer systems are defined in the following: https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/keyboard-nav.html.en https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/shell-keyboard-shortcuts.html.en https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-keyboard-shortcuts-3d444b08-3a00-abd6-67da-ecfc07e86b98 Feel free to add any keyboard combinations you find that work to the wiki. Just ask for editing privileges.

Re: [GNC] Mass Reconcile
Indeed. My rule of thumb in writing documentation (gnucash as well as others) has always been to include things that are specific to the application/product being described. Otherwise, it never ends.

I suppose they could be added, but those are standard for just about any OS. They aren't specific to GnuCash.

Re: [GNC] Mass Reconcile
Interesting approach. Some reports let you search on several fields for specific matches, so for those, you could simply include your 'tags' in the Description, Notes, or Memo fields. That would save lots of effort maintaining and including in each transaction 'dummy' splits as 'tags'. Unfortunately at the moment, the P&L/Income Statement is not one of these reports. (though that would be extremely useful) Regards, Adrien On 5/22/22 12:16 AM, Fred Tydeman wrote: I added over 300 dummy #yymmdd accounts and am using them as tags in splits in transactions (to simulate Quicken classes).

Re: [GNC] Mass Reconcile
Yes, the parent is "#". Your idea worked. Thank you. Also, I found out one can do Shift-down-arrow to select lots of transactions quickly in the Reconcile window.

Re: [GNC] Mass Reconcile
Do they all have the same parent? If so, reconcile the parent and check the box to include all sub-accounts.

[GNC] Mass Reconcile
I added over 300 dummy #yymmdd accounts and am using them as tags in splits in transactions (to simulate Quicken classes). I now realized that those splits are not reconciled. It is a slow process to reconcile them one by one. Is there an easy way to pick many of those #yymmdd accounts and have them all be reconciled at once? ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
