3.7 is better, but it's still not right. The search results window now consists of two equal sized panes. The top pane is completely blank and the bottom pane contains the search results. If the window is resized the two panes still occupy half the window each and the boundary between them is not movable.

This is related to https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=796945. The problem is described in comment 4 which I added to that bug when I reopened it last January.

I think the problem is that the same window definition is used to specify the search criteria and to display the search results. In the first case the top pane wants to be resizable to show more search criteria and in the latter case the bottom pane wants to be resizable to show more results. When this bug was fixed about a year ago the top pane was made resizable and the bottom pane was made fixed size. With the recent change both are resizable, which is better, but still not good. I suspect the solution is to use a different window definition for the two purposes.

I think that the find results window is also parented in such a way that it can't be put behind the main window. This is also an issue although not really related to this bug.

Agreed. 3.7 will behave better on this regard.

Looks like a bug. I haven’t had to search for invoices in many moons so I
can’t say when this first appeared.

I don’t see any reason the criteria portion of a completed search should
expand and not the results section.

Hi All,

In GC 3.6 for Mac when I open the Find Invoice window and run a search,
the results are displayed in a small bottom portion of the window (enough for only 8 invoices to be visible) and the upper larger portion of the window is blank. Dragging the window bigger just expands the blank upper space. I must be missing some way to drag the results region larger...?
(back in 2.4 the results defaulted to fill the window)

Can someone tell me what edge I should be dragging? Or is this a bug?
(or intended??)

Thanks :-)

- Axel
