Re: Intended behavior of automatic decimal point (bug 120940)

I do not even see this as a bug. Any number without a decimal point is divided by 100. Which makes the input “20.44/2” in fact 20.44/0.02 which is 1,022.00 Cheers, Christoph > Am 26.07.2017 um 09:58 schrieb David T. via gnucash-devel > : > > Sumit, > As I

Re: Intended behavior of automatic decimal point (bug 120940)

Christoph, I disagree, and clearly the people on the bug don't see it that way either.  I think of the decimal placement as applying to the final number in the field (as a sort of edit mask, if you will), rather than a preprocessing function that would apply to every element in an equation.  The

Patches versus Pull Requests

Hello, In going over some of the wiki information, I ran into a section that goes into some detail about preparing patches for submission. While this is, no doubt, still a valid way of submitting changes, is this: a) how the project prefers such changes to be submitted, and b) something that

Fwd: GnuCash page Git has been changed by Sunfish62

David, because it is not the first time you are reverting a bunch of my commits, I want to ask you for your reason: a) was it by accident - using some unsynchronized offline editor, or b) you disliked my changes, then you should explain it, or c) you dislike me or d) what else? Regards Frank

Re: Patches versus Pull Requests

+1, it's a lot easier to just format-patch and send it to some place related to the project than using GitHub. :) ___ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel

Frank, I beg to differ about reverting your edits. I have never knowingly reverted any of your edits. (I have had you revert mine, however) It is true that I have changed things you’ve written, to improve their English grammar and readability. I wouldn’t believe that such changes would

Re: Intended behavior of automatic decimal point (bug 120940)

Based on all this, I propose we remove auto-decimal feature in v2.8. Meanwhile, I will look for another bug to fix. Feel free to point me to a bug that could use some attention. Thanks, Sumit On Thu, Jul 27, 2017 at 8:24 PM, John Ralls wrote: > > > > On Jul 27, 2017, at

Re: Patches versus Pull Requests

Thanks John. I will look at ways to rewrite these sections to reflect current practices and preferences. It probably will mostly entail switching the sequence of information (putting pull requests first), and then offloading the details of the patch process into a separate page for those still
