More testing on the accounts register:
- When opening a register the focus is on the Save button.
Tabbing forward from there changes the focus to the Accounts tab.
Tabbing backward from the Accounts tab changes focus to the Transfer
button. Only the Transfer and Save buttons can be reached via
keyboard commands.
I was expecting that I could tab through all of the buttons but maybe
they should only be accessible with the mouse?
- Save, Close, Delete, Cancel, Blank, Split, Jump button work OK
As mentioned before, the Blank, Split, and Transfer button share the
same icon.
The Schedule button appears to work but I didn't test it. Most of the
scheduled transactions were tested earlier.
- Duplicate button
When opening the calendar to select a date the calendar doesn't get
the focus. You're only able to select a date with the mouse but not
with the keyboard.
Sample: http://www.englisch.us/~volker/G2_Testing/DupCal.jpg
When duplicating a transaction the 'Duplicate this Transaction' window
opens with the date highlighted. Changing the focus to the number
field either by tabbing or clicking with the mouse keeps the date
highlighted.
- Transfer button
When entering a transfer the same behavior for the date field
in regard to the calendar as explained under Duplicate button exists.
When searching for an account by typing its name, a little window with
a single text entry field appears somewhere on the screen listing
what has been entered. After a few seconds it disappears.
Due to the indentation of the sub-accounts the account names in the
account list are getting cut off while there is plenty of space
reserved for the account description.
Sample: http://www.englisch.us/~volker/G2_Testing/Transfer.jpg
See how the highlighted account name is cut off. I would think
there should be more space available for the account name and less
for the account description.
There are no tool tips for the fields under 'Basic Information'
(but maybe that's too basic anyway)
- Date field in Register
When the register window is fairly small (around 5 transactions) and
one tries to change a date by selecting from the calendar the calendar
window may get cut off and doesn't display an entire month.
Sample: http://www.englisch.us/~volker/G2_Testing/RegCal.jpg
Please note: This does not happen with the calendar window for the
duplicate transaction.
Also, opposed to the behavior of the duplicate
transaction calendar window the focus _does_ change to
the calendar here.
- Enter a transaction
When entering a transaction with a new account for the transfer field,
the message box comes up asking to create the account with the two
buttons 'No' and 'Yes'. When tabbing between these buttons a third
focus puts the cursor to the text of the question rather then
switching between Yes and No.
- Splash Screen
This is not related to the account register but I don't want to
forget.
When starting GC the splash screen gets created in the middle of the
screen. During the load of the modules it slightly changes (an extra
border is added on both sides) and it appears as if the splash jumps
a little bit.
The sample shows the screen as it gets created and after it changed:

I have another general question for the developers:
I often see messages on the console like this
ALSA lib confmisc.c:955:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name
ALSA lib conf.c:3479:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer
returned error: Permission denied
ALSA lib conf.c:3948:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: Permission
denied
ALSA lib pcm.c:2090:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default
Usage:program_name [address][:port]
Would you like me to report these as well or should I ignore them at the
moment?
