I just discovered that the Since Last Run Assistant has started running when I open my data file with release 5.14 flatpak version in Linux. There is something else going on as well, but the reason this happened is that Flatpak does not automatically pick up preferences from the gcm or from an existing environment file, but it sets a new environment with all the default settings. Strangely, I have been entering data using this Flatpak instance for several days, including frequently closing the program to update the gcm file, but I didn't see the SLRA start when I open the data file until after I had manually run the SLR once in that instance.
The odd thing is that I had copied the gcm file for that book into the correct location for flatpak but somehow I thought I was opening the flatpak version, it apparently slipped and instead opened the the data file that I had configured the flatpak instance to open with the old release 4.8 version of Gnucash which I had not disabled. I didn't notice that error until I saw that different account registers were open yet I was looking at transactions that I had entered earlier today. Looking at ' https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations#System-wide', it does not appear that there is a straightforward way to copy the configuration from a Windows machine to a flatpak instance or even to figure out what information should go into a flatpak override file to match an existing windows configuration. I cannot remember exactly which preferences I have changed from the default over the last several years. I am trying a new (for me) technique to try to delete the old thread history that Google hides from me so it doesn't reappear in my next message. Lets see if it works. -- David Carlson _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected] To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
