As covered in the note at https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v3/C/gnucash-guide/basics-running-gnucash.html#basics-register2 On Tue, Aug 13, 2019 at 5:40, David Carlson<david.carlson....@gmail.com> wrote: James,
Keep in mind that in the register view the description column is a special case that essentially defaults to use all the space that is not explicitly given to other columns. This means setting the other widths first, then dragging the right edge of the description column title box leftward and letting it snap back until there is no horizontal scrollbar at the bottom. Of course, this can get awkward for users that run the program on computers with different display and font settings. Since those settings are defined as user settings, different computers normally each keep their own settings, but if one accesses the program remotely via ssh, for example, it can still get very interesting.
