Re: [GNC] change default behavior of ctrl-PgDn - solved

2022-03-26 Thread Jeff
My mistake I suppose.  Every program I have ever used uses Ctrl-PgDn to go to the end of the file at the first entry point and Ctrl-PgUp to go to the top of the file at the first entry.  GNC seems to have a different hotkey combination for this behavior.  I have never ran across another

Actions > Blank Transaction has cmd-pgdn as the key combo. I'd hazard it is ctrl-pgdn other than Mac. I recall now one of your replies in a previous thread or maybe a bug about this. And indeed shift-pgdn does bring you to the Blank Transaction with focus on the date field. But the one listed

Since when is control-page down the "official key combo"? See https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v4/C/gnucash-guide/chapter_txns.html#txns-register-oview, section 2.9.2.4 Using Entry Shortcuts: " • To move around the register, use these keys to save time: • Tab to move to the

Indeed, shift-fn-down_arrow drops me to a blank transaction with the focus on the date field. Thanks! I still think it a bug that the official key combo doesn't work properly. I thought one was filed already but can't seem to find it. Note, it isn't just the key combo not working. Using

Thank you Adrien. I will report it as a bug.  This has happened throughout numerous versions of GNC.  It is more of an irritation on my part, as my financial imports do not always match receipts entered.  Welcome to the world of Murphy's Law, everything that can go wrong will go wrong (A

I don't think the date itself is relevant. What you want is to get to a new blank transaction, correct? I have the same problem using 4.9 on MacOS BigSur. I'm not sure when this started. As far as I know, there is no preference. There is a preference for using the 'Enter' key for this
