I think that change happened in 2.4 when we switched from using GtkHTML (a 
no-longer-available type of widget, it's been subsumed by GtkTextBuffer with 
less markup capability) to GtkWebKitWebView for displaying reports.

Not any more
I started about Gnucash 1.6, and it went away, to be replaced by the
current scheme.
Sometimes the history helps us understand how the next choice was made.

Re: [GNC] Report Options was hiding expense and income accounts with zero balances

2020-03-07 Thread Adrien Monteleone
Curious...

Where are you right-clicking to get Options?

I tried on the tab - that just gives me a list of all tabs.

I tried on the menu entry, that runs the report sans options, same as 
left-click.

I tried on a blank part of an existing report and got a menu with, “back, 
forward, stop, reload” but no ‘options’.

What did I miss?

The only two methods I know of to get to report options are via the Edit menu 
or the toolbar button, neither of which are obvious save the Edit menu is more 
so, because it is labeled “Report Options” while the toolbar button just says 
‘Options’. (but why a user would ‘intuitively’ think to look in the Edit menu 
is still a mystery to me)

Regards,
Adrien

In my youth (with Gnucash) the options menu was reached with a right
click on the report.
It too me ages to find the spanner on the toolbar when that right click
was superseded.

So as Gnucash continues and grows, we look at different ways of doing
things. We can improve as we go.
