Re: [GNC] GnuCash 4.6 Released

2021-06-28 Thread Adrian Yong
Hi,

I am using v3.7. Is there a *procedure *for me to upgrade to v4.6 without
risk loss of data ? Like, can I run two versions of GNUcash on the same
data files until I am certain that the updated version is running properly ?

Thank you.

Regards,
Adrian

[GNC] GnuCash 4.6 Released

2021-06-27 Thread John Ralls
The GnuCash development team announces GnuCash 4.6, the sixth release in the 
stable 4.x series
Between 4.5 and 4.6, the following bugfixes were accomplished:

Bug 648335 - Display Created Transactions setting

Add a preference for the 'Review Created Transactions' setting in the 
'Since Last Run' dialog so that the default can be specified.
Bug 743753 - Nearest in time security price selection is incorrect in 
reports

Add new price source - 'nearest before report date' will ignore prices 
*after* report date.
Bug 743999 - Deleting a digit from an existing number greater than four 
digits in length generates an error message.

Because the grouping is off. Checking grouping on input is pointless so 
just ignore the grouping separator when parsing number input.
Bug 753283 - Current Selection Highlight Lost After Transaction Edit in 
Scheduled Transaction Window
Bug 787813 - Price change from editing a transaction not reflected in 
pricedb.
Bug 794877 - Intro text of "Online Banking Setup" is outdated
Bug 795804 - Extremely slow save

Only update the status bar when the percentage changes by at least 1% 
because running the mainloop is expensive on macOS and Microsoft Windows. This 
speeds up all operations that run the progress bar with overly-fine resolution.
Bug 796761 - Newline (char(10)) is inserted into the end of the string if 
copy & paste text from excel into the description field of transaction
Bug 797787 - Feature request: preference setting to open new tabs adjacent 
to currently active tab

tests preference; if enabled then new tab inserted after current. if 
disabled then new tab is at the end.
Bug 797928 - Since last run asks for security price when no shares traded
Bug 798093 - Changing the symbol/abbreviation of a security after the 
trading account was created breaks GnuCash.(Reopened)
Bug 798133 - Gnucash crash when any custom action is entered
Bug 798144 - Reconciliation uses different number than entered

If a number was pasted into the balance end value with a currency symbol 
the number would silently fail on evaluate and cause the wrong value to be 
used. With previous changes to the GNCAmountEdit widget a warning symbol will 
indicate a validation error and prevents going forward.
Bug 798148 - "Accounts" page Present (USD) column uses future prices
Bug 798151 - Value entry box not tied to associated transaction in Since 
Last Run assistant
Bug 798156 - glib 2.68.0 breaks gnucash
Bug 798159 - Keyboard shortcut bug in 'manage document link'
Bug 798162 - Type Ahead Initialization Problem
Bug 798170 - Unbound variable: gnc-budget-lookup when running saved report 
Budget Report via gnucash-cli
Bug 798177 - Price of new stock transactions not saved in price database
Bug 798186 - Incorrect result editting account in register when overtyping 
a part selection.
Bug 798188 - The Invoice Editor -> Printable Invoice toolbar button crashes 
on Windows
Bug 798196 - not building with Boost 1.76
Bug 798199 - Pasting invalid value in date column crashes GnuCash
Bug 798202 - Register input ignores theme on KDE rendering black text on 
black background
Bug 798203 - g_assert fault while reversing transaction
Bug 798204 - Creation of Imbalance Accounts
Bug 798212 - right-click the down-arrow in the date register changes focus 
to first split

The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:

Improve transaction sorting on effective num field so that alpha 
charachters and numbers larger than 1 billion will be ordered. Ordering is now 
numeric for leading numbers (so that 9 sorts before 10) and lexical beginning 
with the first non-numeric character. Note that if one of the values begins 
with an alpha character ordering will be entirely lexical. Lexical sorting is 
localized; as in the rest of GnuCash only standard ASCII numbers (codepoints 
U+0030 - U+0039) are treated as numbers.
Add import preferences for the difference in time considered when matching 
an existing transaction to an imported one. A difference less than the 
matching-date-threshold raises the score of the match; a difference greater 
than match-date-not-threshold lowers the score.
Add experimental report "IFRS weighted-average cost basis report". This is 
a work-in-progress to help calculate the cost basis of securities priced in a 
foreign currency.
[income-gst-statement] amend headers post Brexit. UK left EU, therefore VAT 
headers have now changed.
Plug a bunch of memory leaks.
Change how the print_info is obtained for the register: Currently the 
register sets up some 'print_info' values using the default account but if the 
register is a stock register they should be obtained from a parent account with 
a currency.
Change monetary value for gnc_default_share_print_info: Share values are 
not currencies so set the monetary value to 0 for the
