John,

I suspected as much.

Sherlock

Sherlock,

Sure. I’m eyeball-deep in Windows build problems that I need to sort out so 
that I can test the fix for the transfer dialog crash.

Swapping those two lines (there are three locations in 
gnucash/gnome-utils/gnc-file.c) would be the first thing I’d try.

John,

I was able to reproduce the issue after I saw your initial response.  Would you 
like me to take look?  From your description, it sounds like the gnc_state_save 
needs to be called before the GUI components are destroyed.

Regards,

Sherlock

Sherlock,

It’s real. I reproduced it on GnuCash 5.13. I suspect that it’s another side 
effect of 
https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/commit/4c09a0feee698855f095f9729a4856033cbd0522.
 gnc_state_save is called immediately *after* 
gnc_close_gui_component_by_session which is supposed to destroy all of the GUI 
components having the state, thereby relying on the components being leaked.

Hi Roger,

You did not have to install 5.13.  See 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnucash/files/gnucash%20(stable)/

The column widths are metadata maintained in the book's .gcm file in the 
GNC_DATA_HOME directory.  See 
https://lists.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations

I suspect when you replaced your PC, you either neglected to restore the 
GnuCash configuration files or their attributes.


Regards,

Sherlock

Hello
  I have had to replace my PC and so have had to install build 5.13. I find
that this does not remember changes to column widths in my list of accounts
whereas build 5.10 on another laptop does. Is this a bug that will be
rectified shortly? I cannot see any setting that I can change to give effect
to this.
  Roger
