disregarding the probe message and going further down, I see what D. cousens wrote to me and I must admit, it sounds head and shoulders above my understanding.
Wonder whether I should try to uninstall and reinstall another version of gnucash? Should I try to buy a different video card? i hope your response doesn't bounce! julie ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: < gnucash-user-bounces+2a8b9fba95b6a4eb6fb88dbb74fa934b0efe7...@gnucash.org> Date: Sun, Oct 11, 2026 at 5:07 PM Subject: gnucash-user mailing list probe message To: <[email protected]> This is a probe message.

While adding a native database dimension field would require core changes, the layout engine constraints and alternatives for rendering structural changes are discussed extensively in https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/pull/1617 . As shown there, the Scheme report engine can be extended without altering the core C database architecture by leveraging filter lext, and furthermore it's multidimensional. Two custom reports already directly support text filtering functionality: 1. Matrix - GnuCash AccountByFilter - https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2026-September/121800.html 2. Group account data rows by filter text patterns - https://github.com/dawansv/gnucash-custom-reports#examples In my opinion the big thing holding it back is the transaction report has become too unmanageable to add text filter sorting and grouping: https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2026-September/047339.html Btw, I've changed my position on the transaction report being limited by sorting account types. While it fails when using short Account Names, it works perfectly when using Full Account Names. As a practical workaround today, the report can be opened in a spreadsheet, where an AI can easily generate a macro to add the missing leaf accounts and account subtotals to the exported data.
