Re: [GNC] Serious issues with Mac OS update - 12.0.1
Yes, I saw that. I fixed it by installing Intel GnuCash 4.8-2, even though the GnuCash release notes for 4.8 say "[t]he macOS and Win32 GnuCash bundles were not affected". Perhaps that could be corrected, since 4.8-2 seems to have fixes for macOS 12.0.1 Monterey, at least for Intel Macs. I'm not sure whether there are similar problems for the M1 Macs.

Re: [GNC] Handling personal yet-to-pay bills
I use the 'business features' for my personal bills. I don't have to, but it works well. Most of them are duplicated month-to-month, with only minor adjustments for particular fees and usage. (such as phone call minutes, utility usage, etc.) The line items rarely if ever change. I just change the amounts, then post the bill with its due date. The only issue I've ever run into was for a bill for pre-paid car insurance. The issue is one of recognizing the pre-paid expense on a cash vs. accrual basis. (the 'bill' feature uses an accrual method) Technically, the expense is not pre-paid until I actually pay it. So posting the bill when received like the others is a no-go. I can enter the bill when received of course, but can't post it till I physically pay it. Thus I have to forgo the 'Bills Due Reminder' for that one bill as that feature only works for posted bills. (I use my Reminders.app to handle that one for me) Regards, Adrien On 10/16/21 7:59 AM, Mattia Rizzolo wrote: Hi people! I'm a new gnucash user, starting pretty much now. I'll start by saying that despite being a self-employed contractor (and such I am making use of some of the business features of gnucash), my fiscal position in my country (Italy) doesn't impose me any kind of obligation concerning account reports. As such the focus of my set up is really personal, and for now I'm not trying to do things like figuring my tax filings from this. Furthermore I'm allowed to mix "my" money and "my business" money, so effectively my assets are mixed. I have been looking for a more featureful tool than a crude spreadsheet to track all of my assets (and changes to them), that span multiple banks and brokerages (and I also believe I do relatively complex/unusual things that I'd love to be able to track, but I'll come back at a later moment to those). In fact I've been quite happy to discover that the grand total was actually more than what I thought I had at hand :D So thank you to the devs for this program that for now made me very satisfied! :) With that out of the way, today I would like to start with asking the wider community how you'd suggest to track "personal bills" that come and needs to be paid. I'm referring to things like utility bills (phone, electricity, etc) or tax payments that needs to be done; especially those payments that are done manually and don't direct debit to the checking account or credit card. I'd like to have those kind of things filed in even if the actual payment has not been instructed yet, in which case it should count toward a liability (since after all it would an A/P). That would likely also help me remind me of the deadlines. I'm aware of the "bills" feature (that I already started to use with a business vendor, and looks like it's behaving exactly as I'd expect), but I'd like to double check with you if as a user in my situation I'm expected to use the same "business feature" also for personal things?

[GNC] Account Selection in Register
If I type an account name from the beginning e.g. Assets:...: I have it configured to not auto-raise lists so the account list doesn't popup and I can type the account without any issues (using tab to complete). However, if I type a leaf account name the account list popups up but it starts flashing and I can't type any new characters or select an account from the list (just asks if I want to create a new account). If I repeatedly hit keys then every 10th or so key may get taken but as you can imagine this is unusable and very frustrating as it is hard to back out of. I've used this leaf matching previously, but it has been an issue with 4.8 and I'm updated to 4.8-2 and no luck. I'm on a Mac (Big Sur) running 4.8-2. Anyone know if there is a way to configure it to not to try and match leaf accounts, or fix the UI issue?

Re: [GNC] Net Worth Linechart report - can't select hidden accounts
Yes, this is exactly it. The line chart shows a span of time. I currently have 5 years’ history in GnuCash and that includes several accounts which are no longer active. For example, I’ve moved a couple times since then and opened and closed credit union accounts as a result. Show Hidden Accounts is already an option in the report settings, it just doesn’t work in the current software, for who knows what reason. I opened a bug report for this issue here: https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798348 The GnuCash dev team is fantastic and I’m sure they'll get to it when they can.
