Because it is a standard edit key, it should reside in the top level
edit menu. And it should become disabled in contexts, where it is not
available.

Re: [GNC] feature request, select all on reconcille

[Dennis Powless]

I've looked over window-reconcile.c and see the section on the menus.

Odd question, how do I actually learn how to do this.  I've read up on gtk,
glade and see in the code where the menu items are coded.

Do I edit the actual file via gedit (geany) or do I use glade?  I'm sure I
can learn the language to edit the file, but is there another easier way,
seems glade would be this?

Do you think the 'select all' should be a menu item in a drop down (say the
reconcile top level menu?) or on the menu bar as a stand alone button?

Maybe point me in the correct location to discuss this?  I know it's a
steep learning curve, but I do have some experience with doing code, just
not this language.

I want to help out with this project and feel I can do some things to help
out once I figure some of it out.

I did not know that, however the ctr-A is a well-known keystroke combo.

I’ll do some reading :)

How about selecting one line and then clicking ctrl-A ?
That should select all of them. If you then want all of them to be reconciled, 
select ctrl-R.

I realize ctrl-A is a hidden feature. It's not in the reconcile window's 
menus. So yes, that might be an improvement.

To add it you'll need some knowledge of gtk's event model, gtk widgets, menus 
and actions, the gtkbuilder format ("glade") and how to tie callbacks to menu 
actions. The code for the reconcile dialog itself can be found in https://
github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/blob/maint/gnucash/gnome/window-reconcile.c

Geert

[GNC] feature request, select all on reconcille

[Dennis Powless]

I would like to suggest a feature request.  I would be willing to learn how
to do it if someone could point me in the right direction on how to
accomplish this.  Would love to learn how to work with GN.  I'll give it a
go.

Would love to have a select all option for the account reconcile.  I have
to un-click all the entries before I reconcile.  Have the button I can
click would help a lot.
