See my reply above concerning native resolution and accessibility features. I don't use Gnome as a daily desktop, but I'm sure it has a scaling feature also. At the least, you can increase the various UI font sizes. Regards, Adrien On 6/29/23 3:14 PM, Default User wrote: Actually, no - I am

I just upgraded to 5.3-1 on Monterey and it works fine. I did have to accept the suggestion from the list and then Tab but it populated with an autofill of memo, amounts, et cetera from my last transaction with the same Description. I'll add here that I use GnuCash with old paper and pen

[GNC] GnuCash autofill headaches

2023-06-29 Thread David G. Pickett via gnucash-user
Maybe, suggestion, move the leading matches to the top of the list and the others below, maybe even sorted by match start column, and then by value.  Thus it works like as old if you type enough leading and hit tab or click on it. ___ gnucash-user

I haven't upgraded yet so it still uses the contains search. I found that if I stop and think about what is unique in the description I want it helps narrow things down quicker with less typing. For instance, I have several descriptions that start with "Contribute To". I found that if I start

I agree. The latest version of clairvoyance in entering a transaction is great. It combines finding the most recent, and most likely, with a list of all possible options, and an easy up-arrow to kill the auto-complete if desired. Well done. Will On 29 Jun 2023, at 8:28, Jack Slater wrote:

This may not be ideal for your situation, but try a higher resolution with a larger system font. Most modern video hardware performs better and lasts longer at its native resolution though. There are ways to find that on Debian. Ideally, run it at native resolution and adjust UI items to suit
