Make sure that you're really using 3.7 or earlier for OFX Direct Connect. Go to https://ofxhome.com and look up your bank. At the bottom of the record make sure that it has validated within the last week or two: If it hasn't the publicly available OFX setup information is at best stale, but more likely they no longer support OFX Direct Connect or have adopted new software that will only talk to Quicken. Some of the banks in that last category have adopted software that doesn't actually use OFX Direct Connect: One bank with which I do business has a note on their website saying that the file exchange format is the Intuit-proprietary QDF. It wouldn't surprise me at all to learn that a stream of that would crash AQBanking and take GnuCash out with it. Does your bank offer OFX, QFX, or QIF downloads?

I have volunteered to help Martin as best I can. I’m retired, getting old and not in the best of health but hopefully can be of some assistance.

Re: [GNC] v3.8 AQBanking in the US
No. OFX Direct Connect is a way of connecting GnuCash directly to the bank and retrieving the account, balance, and transaction data directly into GnuCash. In addition to a working AQBanking it requires that your bank provide the service and that it reveals enough information that you can configure AQBanking to connect to it.

Re: [GNC] v3.8: Budget "total" field
Switching users isn't onerous as long as you use simple passwords--you do have to type it every time you switch--and it's easy to create a folder in your main user's $HOME to collect stuff: https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/control-access-to-your-public-folder-on-mac-mchlp1775/mac. If that's still too much trouble you can set GNC_DATA_DIR and GNC_CONFIG_DIR in the non-production bundle's Contents/Resources/etc/gnucash/environment to point somewhere other than ~/Library/Application Support/Gnucash. Preferences go to ~/Library/Preferences/org.gnucash.Gnucash no matter what, but that's probably not a concern in most cases.

Re: [GNC] Multiple GnuCash Rev Installations
Greg As John said it can be done on Linux but to do it you have to build from source as the install location needs to be specified when you invoke cmake to configure the build. If I am running locally from my user directory I am able to run as many versions as I like but you need a few basic OS skills in setting up to be able to launch the different version. My method of doing this is to install each version to its own subdirectory of my home directory usually under $HOME/.local/bin. I am currently on Linux Mint 19.3 which is based on Ubuntu 18.04 I.e. $HOME/.local/bin/gnucash-3.6 $HOME/.local/bin/gnucash-3.7 $HOME/.local/bin/gnucash-3.8 Each of these locations will have its own /bin /include /share /lib directories created by the install process. This is the location which needs to be supplied in the -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX switch to cmake when building. AFAI can tell GnuCash sets its internal pointers to look for its resources in the appropriate subdirectories. The arrangement of subdirectories is different for an install to usr/local but for installation in /opt it will normally have a /opt/gnucash directroy which contains the above subdirectories. I have not tried installing multiple versions to /opt and I don't know if make install can handle it but if you specified /opt/gnucash-3.8 to cmake in the build it should install with all the subdirectories under that and it is only necessary to create the launcher pointing to the executable file. The /bin directory in each case contains the main executable .../bin/gnucash I then create a menu launcher for each tagged with the version numbers and pointing to the appropriate executable. If you install under /opt/gnucash- you just point to that location instead in the launcher. If you are a terminal addict then an alternative is to create an alias which points to each version. You can usually find descriptions appropriate to particular distros for creating alias and launcher items in the forums for each distro. This is not something I do as a matter of course but I did do it for the first couple of V3 releases where there were initially a few bugs but I have reverted to just installing only the release version in usr/local after v3.3. I retain the source and build directories for the last couple of version so I can in principle reinstall. You have to exercise caution where a release includes changes in the file locations and/or the data file structure which are not backward compatible (fairly rare but occurs occasionally) although this is usually only to the users configuration files as discussed in the wiki https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations. If you are working across major release boundaries an approach to deal with the changing user file locations and structure might be to create a separate user. If you maintain the data files in a dropbox for example it can be made accessible to each user fairly easily. My personal accounts can be edited from either my desktop and/or laptop (both Linux Mint boxes) or my wife's Windows 10 laptop which are synchronized whenever internet access is available usually within a minute or two of logging in. Again caution is needed to ensure syncing has occurred.

Re: [GNC] Default Invoice Config
Edit > Style Sheets ‘default' is the simplest and least customizable. 'Head or Tail' is the one with the most options. All but ‘default’ allow you to have footer info and a logo. That style sheet would allow you complete control, but of course you’d need to view the report/invoice in html code to see the various nodes to write rules for. The column choices can be done in CSS or you can use the report options. The report options also have a css field in the Layout tab. I think your saved config though was stuck on that one invoice because it was in the invoice selection field in the General tab. Try blanking that field and then re-save the configuration to see if that does the trick.

Re: [GNC] Chaning left sidebar spacing
I’m on MacOS Catalina using 3.8. I didn’t think my tabs were as large as the photo, but I think that is a perception due to the photo being a closeup. It seems I too have some padding in the tab and between the tabs. I’ll note that with left-side tabs (not sure of other placements) the tab area will expand to accommodate the longest title. (I also haven’t tested the limit of this) In the photo there is a long tab name near the bottom. (looks like a report) This widens the tab bar and makes the shorter tab names look like they have excessive spacing. The only solution I can think of is to use top or bottom placement. This would shrink each tab to fit, but will of course allow fewer tabs to be visible without scrolling. In the meantime, I’ll fire up my gtkinspector and find the css nodes for that part of the UI and offer some declarations to try. I should be able to report back with those later today.

Re: [GNC] Multiple GnuCash Rev Installations
I was about to say I’ve run side-by-side versions with ease before, but then realized, “I’m using a Mac.” While building is not terribly difficult on linux (especially using the very good instructions on the wiki) if you aren’t up for it, consider using Virtualbox with a linux guest VM and consider running the other version there. If you’re on Linux or Windows this might be the easiest route to take.

Re: [GNC] v3.8: Budget "total" field
I’m considering that approach, but that would mean switching users just for testing. I suppose I could set up some sort of common folder to save screen shots and crash reports as I don’t want to have activity in the test user not be available to me in my main account. If Mac had some sort of container system like linux or if I could easily run it in a VM (without a large GB virtual disk) I’d prefer that route but that doesn’t seem possible right now.

That's because on Macs most applications are self-contained bundles containing all of their non-system dependencies and there's no os-maintained list keeping track of them.

Re: [GNC] Chaning left sidebar spacing
Oh. Ok. I'm sorry it's not working for you; I'm pretty sure that, prior to my leaving the Apple world, I was able to change the appearance of Gnucash by following the css styling instructions. That included the tab height. Unfortunately, for this discussion, I no longer have my Mac to look at the configuration to guide you further. For testing, you might try applying a basic broad css style (like changing the base font face) to see whether you can get any css to take. Once you get that working, add the tab height settings to the file and see the results. A lot of this requires just the right file name in just the right location with just the right formatting; get any of our setting, and none of it works. Best of luck, David T.

[GNC] Multiple GnuCash Rev Installations
Hi, Somebody replied to a comment I made about not being able to install an updated GnuCash alongside an older GnuCash, but I lost track of the response. It seemed to relay a variety of ways they were able to achieve multiple installations, but I was unable to discern any information on how that was done. My wish for the ability to have multiple installations was for the installer dialog to allow this as an option, for anyone to use. I haven't installed GnuCash in a while, but the last time I did, the installer uninstalled the previous installation without an option to leave it there. At the time, I enquired about this very thing and was told it's not an option. What's the secret?

Re: [GNC] Default Invoice Config
Actually, I see that reusing the Default configuration actually just reproduces the exact invoice I used when creating the configuration! Meaning, I posted invoice #001, did "Print Invoice", then clicked options. Then I edited the options: put in my company logo, put my bank payment info into the "Extra Notes" field, etc. Then I did "Save Config". Then I did "Print Invoice" on invoice #002 and selected the above saved configuration. Which gives me back invoice #001. How can I save the options like company logo, "Extra Notes" field, etc. and have it automatically applied to all printed invoices? Barring that, can I go back to 3.6? Will 3.6 work with a 3.7-edited data file? - Axel — Axel Essbaum a...@essbaum.com > On 2 Jan 2020, at 18:55, Axel Essbaum wrote: > > > In GNC 3.6 (macOS Mojave) I created a configuration for invoices, saved it > under the name "Default", and then every invoice I printed (to a PDF file) > automatically adopted this configuration. > > In 3.7 this appears to no longer work.

Re: [GNC] Opening Balance on Reports
What I do is add a transaction on the first date of the new period with the transaction reference "Balance carried forward" with nothing in the credit/debit columns. Then a transaction report with running balance has "Balance carried forward" as the first transaction and the running balance shows the amount carried forward. See attached example (our club financial year runs from 1st August to 31st July).
