Re: [GNC] Saved report configurations not saving selected hidden accounts

[Bill D]

Thanks for pointing me there - I read the comments so I now see what is 
happening.

After further experimentation I can see that yes the Saved Report does appear 
to be maintaining the selected hidden accounts ... provided one, after loading 
the Saved Report, does not re-open (and apply) the selections displayed by 
default via the Options->Accounts setting (because that dialogue always 
defaults without "show hidden accounts" setting and will clear any selected 
hidden entries if you show them).

Not exactly optimal behaviour (to not show the saved set of selected accounts 
from the Saved Report config) ... I think it means there is no way to see the 
complete set of selected accounts that are currently stored in a "Saved Report" 
if that set includes any or all hidden accounts.

I'm modifying "Net Worth Linechart" and saving as custom report.

When modifying the config using Options->Accounts,  I also choose "Show hidden

top level (so that selects all asset sub-accounts, even hidden ones).

I apply this and Save Config.

But when I return to my "Saved Report Configurations" and selecting this saved 
report ... and then to Options->Accounts ... I see  the "Show hidden account" 
is not checked, and the hidden accounts have been de-selected.

I am thinking this behaviour is a bug?

Ideally when I "save config" for a report ... it should save all the accounts 
exactly as selected including hidden accounts if I had selected that?  I should 
not have to re-select hidden accounts each time I open a Saved Report 
Configuration.

You're not the only one to think it a bug:

Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble

[David JamesTK]

Followed the wiki instructions, although no need to create a file as 
settings.ini already exists as shown. What does not exist (at least on my 
laptop) is:

GTK_CONFIG_HOME/settings.ini:

Or this path posted by D below

C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash

This is the only path to GNUCash files

C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash  (isnt this for older 32 bit programmes x86?)

No other apps use GTK unless Thunderbird but that font is changed through css 
style sheet from within the program itself.

It seems from  https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/GTK3 that you can use settings.ini 
for ALL GTK apps installed or the gtk-3.0.css to affectGnuCash only...  
Settings.ini seems to use the gtk-font-= format.

Cheers David H.

Typefaces

There are two ways of setting a default font and size for GnuCash.

The first sets an option in GTK's  settings.ini for  all GTK applications (GIMP 
etc.),
the other uses css to accomplish the same for  GnuCash only.

  *   If neither you nor a program changed the default values before, the files 
mentioned in this section will not exist. In this case just create them as pure 
text files and with normal file access rights.

The examples below with both set the default font to Arial and font size to 14.

Via settings.ini

Create if necessary and add the following line to 
GTK_CONFIG_HOME/settings.ini:

[Settings]
gtk-font-name=Arial 14


General notes

  *   In settings.ini, lines beginning with a # and blank lines are considered 
comments.
  *   If the file exists and has a [Settings] line just add the font line 
beneath it.
  *   Setting font family via settings.ini doesn't work on macOS and Microsoft 
Windows. Use CSS to set font family on those operating systems.

Via css

Create if necessary and add the following to 
GNC_CONFIG_HOME/gtk-3.0.css:

* {
  font: 14pt arial, sans-serif;

Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble

[David JamesTK]

Thanks D, searched C: drive but no gtk-3.0.css file found.

With Windows 10 changing the overall size of everything is easy, can be done in 
small increments too only problem is all items are made larger - Chrome is 
already bordering on too big at the moment.

Nabble

Yes, sorry the title is a bit misleading as originally asking where the Nabble 
mailing list forum (not a forum) thingy had moved to, thought support may have 
stopped.

David H, can I respond to you also, the wiki page is my reference point too, if 
you can highlight what needs to be typed i.e correct syntax as per D response 
that would be great.

Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble

[D. via gnucash-user]

So, 

My gtk-3.0.css is in 

C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\GnuCash

And the designator that changes fonts looks like this:

* {
   font-size: 16px;
   font-family: "Arial", sans-serif;
}

You'd be better off following that, rather than copying from another app.

David T.

gtk-font-name=Arial 18
gtk-xft-antialias=1
gtk-xft-hinting=1
gtk-xft-hintstyle=hintfull
gtk-xft-rgba=rgb

Into empty file location C:\Users\david\AppData\Local\gtk-3.

No change, this happened with Thunderbird too, option there was edit css file

It’s my understanding the file is optional so won’t appear in all locations? 
Have you tried copying your file into the app data location which is currently 
empty by the look of things?

Re: [GNC] access to Gnucash Nabble

[David JamesTK]

Thanks Glen.

Currently in this folder C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\etc\gtk-3.0  on Windows 
10 Pro
editing this file settings.ini

Before

[Settings]
gtk-xft-antialias=1
gtk-xft-hinting=1
gtk-xft-hintstyle=hintfull
gtk-xft-rgba=rgb

After

[Settings]
gtk-font-name=Arial 18
gtk-xft-antialias=1
gtk-xft-hinting=1
gtk-xft-hintstyle=hintfull
gtk-xft-rgba=rgb

Is this the right folder location and entry (18 font not needed, just making it 
super obvious for any changes)

Thanks, David

Hello all,

No idea if this will reach anyone but wanted to ask a question please.

Just switched back to using Windows (long story) but noticed the font is 
smaller than on Mint using the same screen.

Followed most of the GTK 3.0 instructions on Wiki including editing 
settings.ini file as per their help file, unfortunately no change at all.

Do I need to run GTK inspector to edit or can this be done in notepad (as I 
have done?)

Thanks,

David

We do, that's what the *.log files in the same directory as your data file are. 
Note, though, that they log only transactions and their splits. Nothing else, 
especially not the business stuff, is logged.


To re-enter them use File>Import>Replay GnuCash Log File.

You could enable auto-save in preferences, but when that runs it blocks the UI 
so it can be a bit tedious if you have a large file. You might also consider 
the SQLite3 backend that writes the database immediately when you complete a 
transaction, at the expense of not making a backup file and not being able to 
quit without saving if you decide you've made a mess of a session.

[GNC] Post crash recovery log file suggestion

[David G. Pickett via gnucash-user]

As 4.9 does abort ungracefully from time to time, I grow weary of reentering my 
unsaved transactions.  I suggest that you post them to a new sort of log file 
as I go, so I do not have to save megabytes of almost duplicate files so often 
to avoid this.  Of course, if I leave the cursor on a modified line, I still 
might lose that line, unless you can log that along with its state when I 
change tabs.   (Maybe I should be warned when I change tabs that I left an 
uncommitted transaction, not later when I save?)  When the app starts, it can 
check the file and replay.  When there is a save and the normal files are 
closed or flushed to disk, the new log file can be truncated.  It'd be very 
much like an RDBMS log.  And perhaps a way to allow us to save less often?

Re: [GNC] Question on Parent Accounts

[R. Victor Klassen]

1) Create the new account: presumably Expenses:Cost of Goods Sold 
2) Optionally (recommended for parent accounts) make it a placeholder account
3) Edit any accounts that are to become children of this one.  When you create 
or edit an account, there’s an option near the bottom of the pop-up to specify 
the parent account.
4) Optionally create any further children accounts, specifying this one as 
parent.

Re: [GNC] How to customize the default invoice (on print invoice button)

[Geert Janssens]

In addition to that the tax invoice uses a different stylesheet mechanism than 
the other 
printable reports.

Tax invoice reports have a field in which you can pass the path to a css file 
to style your 
invoice. All other (invoice) reports on the other hand use a dropdown list from 
which you can 
select a predefined style. Those predefined styles are managed via menu item 
Edit->Style 
Sheets.

One of the predefined style sheets (or perhaps "style sheet engines") in that 
list is also CSS 
based and would again allow you to style the invoice reports (except for the 
tax invoice 
report in this case).

Unfortunately there is no way in GnuCash directly to select a specific style 
sheet as the 
default for all reports. With the tax invoice report you can currently work 
around this 
limitation by copying taxinvoice.css to your GNC_DATA_DIR 
($HOME/.local/share/gnucash on 
linux) and modify it to your taste. If that file exists GnuCash will prefer it 
over the default one 
found in /share/guile/site/2.2/gnucash/reports/stylesheets 
.

Regards,

Geert
