While sequencing it in certain order works to preserve the setting which I think is consequence of the sequencing, nonetheless it is not a mechanism by which settings can be saved persistently IMHO (I’m wearing my developer hat here). If they are truly settable and saved, then it should persist across anyway of GNC restart.
Having an account register open when closing GNC is anathema for me – I like nothing but COA pop open and go from there.

Kalpesh, Actually, what I found was that the Register Style (just like Column Width) DOES persist across GnuCash restarts. That part does work as expected. What DOESN'T work is that only the Column Widths are being saved during the restart, and not the Register Style. If the Column Widths are being saved, why wouldn't that include the Register Style? It seems like a program bug (or maybe a feature request?) that could be fixed just by saving the current Style setting at the same time that the Column Widths are being saved. I'm still relatively new to GnuCash; but hasn't anyone else commented on this issue before?
