[GNC] Saving UI settings

2019-07-18 Thread David Carlson
I noticed recently that if GnuCash is open and the computer crashes the
settings for reports currently open and open window arrangements are lost,
reverting back, I believe, to the settings as of the last time the program
was shut down normally.

Since it is very tedious to perform a full shutdown in the middle of a
lengthy session just to save a window arrangement/report settings, is there
a magic accelerator or shortcut to append the UI settings to the
auto-magical backup File > Save?

If it matters, I observed this in GnuCash 2.6.19 running in Ubuntu 18.04,
which somehow crashed in a VirtualBox VM.

An additional point. At least on Linux you can have multiple instances of
GnuCash running open at different files at the same time.

But a word of warning. You might think you could save time by having 
more than one set of books open at a time. But I guarantee you, ONE 
mistake where you have accidentally entered a transaction into the wrong 
set of books will take you more time to find/solve/fix than all the time 
you have saved to that point.

Re: [GNC] Attach Memo to Transactions

2019-07-18 Thread David Cousens
One other thing you can do is to associate an external file to a transaction
in Gnucash, e.g. a pdf copy of a receipt or invoice or other document. It
creates a link which may be used to open that document from within GnuCash.
