[GNC] Porting Auto Completion from v4 to v5

2023-09-13 Thread sunfish62--- via gnucash-user
Hello, In another thread, it was noted that the latest version of auto complete in version 5 of GnuCash restarts the auto completion data store. That gave me pause, as I make use of the feature extensively to speed the entry of transactions for a large number of stocks and mutual funds. (I

Gilberto, Instead of recording the taxes directly in the account register for mutual fund, you have to perform an intermediate step, such as - In mutual fund register, record the gross sale value with appropriate income split for capital gain, but instead of transferring the sale proceeds

Hi The tax deducted at source before payout is kind of advance tax, and it becomes your tax credit. So ideally you should create an asset account named "advance Tax" or "Tax deducted at source" and post the deducted amount by bank in this asset account. You need to identify the brokerage fee

Interesting use of Description. (I learn something new everyday) I turned on Transaction Journal View early on and never looked back. Thus, I put 'thing' in the Memos. (those get auto-filled by the way after you auto-complete a description, well, at least until 5.x, but they still do if I

Thanks, Adrien. I understand what you're saying: a bug may have been noticed, and fixed, as part of other coding before there was ever a report in the database. That makes sense to me. I don't use Notes at all -- force of habit, mainly, since it's only a couple of months ago that I knew such a

The 'not related to a bug' is literally that — a change that didn't have a formal bug report as documentation. That doesn't mean it wasn't designed to fix an otherwise 'undocumented' bug, or in the case of the accelerators, to head one off due to other changes outside of GnuCash control. But

Thanks! But that change is in release notes for 4.9, i.,e. the pre-release 5.x, so that wouldn't be relevant to 4.14, right? And the change is marked as not related to a bugfix. So I'm still confused. Was there a bug in 4.14's handling of accelerator keys in accelerator-map, or wasn't there? I'm
