Yes, "Period" is the accounting period, which you can set in Edit » Preferences » Accounting Period. I tried it just now, when General Journal was the current panel. When I clicked on Accounts, I saw that the "Total (Period)" amounts had updated as expected. I changed the accounting period back to start and end of this year, while the Accounts panel was visible. It was not redrawn automatically. I pressed Ctrl+R, and that refreshed the screen and showed the expected amounts for the current year.
