Re: [GNC] gnucash version 4.6 precission issue in price

[s310310]

hi David,

thanks for the reply,

I tried to change the precision as you noted. but it didn't help

some more info:
I am not using the online quotes option. I enter the prices manually every
weekend.
The issue started with version 4.6. in version 4.5 I didn't experience any
issue and it is the same gnucash file (no new stocks/bonds have been added
for a while now).
As a matter of fact, I have reinstalled version 4.5 and it works fine
with 4.5.

BR,
Shay

[GNC] gnucash version 4.6 precission issue in price

[s310310]

hi,

in the price database tool, I am trying to set a price of 1.0079 but it
"corrects" me to 1.01
a value of 1.0001 becomes 1

I tried to change the preferences -> numbers -> decimal point to 4/5/6
places, and also remove the "force prices to display as decimals"
but it didn't work

What am I missing? Is there a bug?

BR,
Shay

Re: [GNC] WHY ARE THERE "IMBALANCE ENTRIES" AT ALL ?? JUST CURIOUS

[s310310]

hi,
why not make it configurable (either nag or create a dummy account/entry)
as a settings option?

[GNC] question - how do I move one or more transactions between accounts?

[s310310]

hi,

I want to re-organize my transactions into the correct accounts.
I know I can "CUT" from the original account and "PASTE" in the destination
account.
It takes a lot of work.

Is there a way to select the required transactions and do a "move" instead?
