On a related note, I'm finding some weirdness related to selecting
text from within an account. I have noted the following:
1. Double or triple clicking a Description no longer highlights the
text.
2. Selecting text can only be done by having the cursor on another
line and selecting from your starting point of a *different* line.
IOW, I cannot select from within the same line the cursor is currently
located. Also, the selection takes between 1 and 2 seconds when it
does work.
3. I cannot move the cursor with the mouse from within a particular
register entry. Eg, click the 10th letter of an entry and
subsequently click the 2nd letter of the same entry to place the
cursor at that location doesn't work.
Anyone else noticing this? And yes, I'm aware these are fairly minor
gripes on what is otherwise a fabulous piece of work. Nicely done,
John.

The register problem is as you described: using the scroll wheel is
noticeably slower on the bundled app than it is with the fink-
installed X11 version on the same machine. I tested this both with
the Macbook's two-finger scrolling trackpad, and an external mighty
mouse, with the same results. The bundled app is scrolling slowly.
And yes, you are referring to the reconcile window problem I see. If
you wait long enough, the arrow key will eventually do something; it
just takes so long that you forgot what it was. I use the keyboard a
lot because OFX imported transactions come through on my machine as
pre-reconciled (I don't know why that would be...), and clicking one
of these de-selects it, and if you click on the transaction again to
reselect it, more often than not, you end up opening the register to
that transaction, taking you away from the reconcile window
altogether. A minor annoyance, to be sure. I avoid that by using the
arrow keys.
otool tells me that the cputype is I386.

Actually, my gripe is increasing; I have found that
the reconcile window arrow key response is HORRIBLE (3
seconds to move the focus down one line). There is clearly
something seriously wrong in there. This was not a problem
in the earlier dmg file.

I know it's a minor gripe, but the
scrolling in the latest OS X binary (downloaded
yesterday)
is extremely slow. I am running 10.5.8 on a
Macbook Pro
Intel.
Hmm. I tried scrolling a register page by arrow-buttons,
page up/down, and dragging the thumb. The thumb lagged the
mouse a bit, but I was able to scroll from one end to the
other of a several-thousand-split register in less that a
second. Is that the scrolling performance you're talking
about? In the reconcile window, I see that the up/down
arrows don't do anything at all. Is that what you mean? (I
usually use the mouse in the reconcile window, so I don't
have a baseline expectation here.)
Just to make sure you've got the Intel binary, could you
run otool -hv on
Gnucash-Intel.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash-bin?
It should say "i386" under the cputype. Thanks.

John Ralls
