I did have 5.18.3 and it wasn't working. But I upgraded to 5.18.4 and it's now all ok. Thanks for your help.

[GNC] invisible checkboxes
Something very strange has happened to my GnuCash installation - I no longer have any checkboxes. In dialogs where I'd expect to see them, there is just blank space. In the reconcile window, when I hover my mouse over a line, I can see a blank white square where the checkbox would be. If I click the checkbox, the square changes to blue. But when I move the mouse away, it's invisible again. Other applications seem unaffected. Does anybody have any suggestions, please.

Re: can't change preferences [SOLVED]

Does anybody have any clues, please? The gnucash preferences are stored in gsettings. This is a generic preferences store that requires a platform dependent backend. On linux this backend is dconf. I presume this is also what would be used on FreeBSD. Can you check if dconf is installed (and used) ? Thanks for replying, Geert. I can run the dconf command. But I can't seem to get anything out of it: dconf list / dconf list /org.gnucash/ dconf list /org/gnucash/ all print nothing. I can see /usr/local/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ contains lots of files including 16 org.gnucash.* ones. I can also see the file gschemas.compiled in that directory and it has the same date/time as the gnucash files. I built GnuCash from the FreeBSD port system using the guile2 option (after having used older versions of GnuCash and guile for many years). Maybe that's when I started having this problem. I can try switching back to guile1, or even going back to an older version of GnuCash. Hang on, I'm going to try something... ... ok, back again and solved it! It appears that my dconf settings were corrupt. I installed dconf-editor and, when I ran it and tried to edit something, it said: (dconf-editor:25665): dconf-WARNING **: failed to commit changes to dconf: GDBus.Error:org.gtk.GDBus.UnmappedGError.Quark._g_2dfile_2derror_2dquark.Code17: Cannot open dconf database: invalid gvdb header So I renamed ~/.config/dconf to ~/.config/dconf_save and tried it again, and it worked. And now I can change the GnuCash preferences too! So, it's all working now.

can't change preferences
Hi GnuCashers, I'm running GnuCash 2.6.19 on FreeBSD 11-stable. Everything seems to work correctly except that I can't change any preferences. I try to click on the tick boxes/radio buttons etc. in the Edit Preferences dialog, but nothing happens. It's as if everything is read-only. I presume that the reason for this also causes that it doesn't remember my most recent open files, and it always shows tips on startup even though I unticked the "show tips" box. Does anybody have any clues, please?
