Hello,

Before I submit a bug report, I’d like to see whether there has been some 
change to the reports system that causes the degradation I am seeing, and if 
there is a different way to achieve my same goal.

I have a custom report that is set to display a single figure for YTD totals 
for a subset of my income accounts (dividends). This is a simple transaction 
report that has the Income:Dividend accounts selected, is set to cover the 
current accounting period, and is supposed to display only “Totals”. 

In general, the result is as follows:

YTD Dividends
From 01/01/2018 to 05/02/2018
————
Grand Total $9,999.00

In the past, this report would present the current YTD dividend total in a 
single figure in a compact area (I use it on a dashboard multicolumn display). 
With 3.1, however, I get all the accounts listed, and no figures anywhere (not 
for individual accounts, and not for a grand total). Furthermore, if I try to 
load the saved report separately, I get a generic “Report Error” message. If I 
close out GC 3.1 without saving and reload the file in 2.6.19, the report 
functions as expected.

Finally, if I try to recreate the report from scratch, I cannot get the report 
to format as I prefer—with no account information and a single YTD amount. I 
can only seem to get the total if I display all the transaction data, which 
defeats the purpose of my report showing me at a glance how much dividend 
income I have accumulated YTD.

Has anyone encountered this problem and found a remedy?

While I am at it, I note that the report setting to reverse account signs on 
the transaction report doesn’t seem to affect the total amount any more—it 
worked correctly in 2.6.19. ISTR that others have noted this—or does that need 
to get a bug as well?

Cheers,
David T.
