single-line view. He proposes that the transaction line in split view
should also show the value in the transaction currency, that is shares
* price. Does anyone have an opinion about this?
I sometimes found Steven Bruniges' writing a little difficult to follow,
so pardon if I've missed something. I disagree with him; the
transaction line in the split view shouldn't show the value in the
transaction currency because the share price isn't being shown. (Why
doesn't he have the "Price" column header?)
My preferences would be, referencing the first two screenshots from the
original bug:
Screenshot https://bugs.gnucash.org/attachment.cgi?id=374842
* Leave all numbers as-is
Screenshot https://bugs.gnucash.org/attachment.cgi?id=374843
* In the "Tot Sell" column remove the top black 3 and leave that cell blank.
In BOTH screenshots
* change heading "Balance" to "Shares Balance" to indicate it is not the
cash value total but the shares total
* no need for "Tot" in any of the three column headings that use it.
They are not really totals, which just makes this a little odd.
Surprisingly, this does not appear to be an issue in my single
other-currency balance sheet account (except for the "Tot" parts of
column heads), probably because conversion rates are not displayed in
the register.
