[GNC] Security timezone

[Fred Tydeman]

Is there a way to set a default timezone for adding security?
Is there a way to mass change the timezones for existing securities?

Re: [GNC] 5.0-1 (Flathub) issue

[Adrien Monteleone]

Correct, 4.14 did not get any new features, but did get most of the bug 
fixes that went into 5.0. (though not all)


I too like it so far, and have already made plans to use it in cleaning 
up spelling variations.


But I do understand how some cases would be not as easy or friendly. 
Overall, I expect it to be as great or more of a time saver as the same 
functionality for choosing transfer accounts. I foresee the few times it 
takes me an extra click or two will be more than offset.


Regards,
Adrien

[GNC] flatpak 5.0-1 crash

[Dale Alspach]

I have tried a few reports. Opening the Balance Sheet, Income or Future
Scheduled Transactions crashes Gnucash. Opening Advanced Portfolio or
Investment Portfolio does not always crash Gnucash, however these do not
work properly. They seem to be truncating the list of accounts. If I go to
Options -> Accounts the possibilities are truncated. In my case no top
level account further down the alphabet from Paypal is shown.

Details: linux mint 21.1, flatpak 5.0-1.

Re: [GNC] No 5.0 Quotes fix, went back to 4.8

[David G. Pickett via gnucash-user]

A software update, uninstall, install should not change anything unless it 
warns me the update requires a modification of the get quotes batch procedure.
Do you think uninstalling flatpak 5.0 and installing using Software 4.8, then 
uninstalling using Software 4.8 and installing flatpak 5.0-1 messed it up?  See 
above?
It looks like I never had a master, even on old backup directories:

Re: [GNC] 5.0-1 (Flathub) issue

[Gyle McCollam]

Having the option to choose either method is a good one, but I have no problem 
with the change.

In fact, I would like to see the option to select from multiple previous 
transfers.  I have many vendors that have several transfer options and using 
the last one is not what I would normally choose.  For instance, the state (US) 
& federal govt. make payments to us for pension, several tax relief programs, 
and tax refunds.  This happens with my insurance company as well, for 
homeowners and car.  Defaulting to the last transaction for the vendor still 
means I have to make adjustments to the accounts.


Thank You,

Gyle McCollam

So, previously it would correctly guess in one or two characters.

One of the problems (or perhaps the ACTUAL problem) is the embedded
search. To new users that might be considered helpful for a when you
