Charles,
Thanks for clarifying. I got confused and I now agree with the proposed prefs. #2 is exactly what I need.

Enter moves to a new transaction ++++ For changing the behavior/add the preference, but ---- for always creating a new transaction. I'd rather have Enter commit the current transaction and move to the next one. Only if the transaction being edited was the last one, it will create a new one. I often import transactions from my bank and then edit them (eg to create splits). So when I press Enter, I declare that I am done with that transaction and am moving on to the next one. It would be very weird that I would suddenly jump to the end of the screen. The checkbox option that you already in Edit->Preferences->Register is #3 when checked and #1 when unchecked. The only thing new here is #2. Ulrike Fischer wrote >I would like keys for 2 _and_ 3. >e.g. enter -> next transaction > shift + enter -> new transaction So I agree with Ulrike ;-) In this proposal shift+enter equal Enter followed by shift-pagedown right? I.e. we are never creating new empty transactions in the middle of the ledger. Empty transactions are always at the bottom, so if you pick #3 then you jump to the end every time you hit Enter. I'd use #2, personally. Andy Den Tandt -Charles _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
