Not that I’ve heard. I certainly haven’t had any problem like that.

That sounds like a permissions issue.  You need to be sure that both the

Are you saying the totals do not appear in the accounts screen, or in

These would have different solutions.

Make sure that View -> Filter By... -> Other -> Show hidden accounts is

Re: [GNC] Launching on Mac (was Repeatable Mac crash)

[John Ralls]

That’s the way GnuCash used to launch, with a bash script, but bash can’t AFAIK 
get the filename from LaunchServices. AppleScript or Automator script might 
work.

Christoph, if you want to try that, the approach would be to rename 
Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash to something else and name the script 
Gnucash.

Are you saying the totals do not appear in the accounts screen, or in the
registers, or that the reports do not work?

These would have different solutions.

[GNC] Can't hide accounts in ver 3.3

[Ameet Sengar]

Anyone able to hide an account via edit account window or another way? I
check the hidden box and my account is still visible. Windows 10, GC 3.3
from stock executable.

Opening old accounts can be done using Find Account, but strange thing is
that the "hidden" parameter remains checked even though it's no longer
hidden.

It should not, though it depends on where you store your css and how you 
define it. Css uses precedence rules.

First a more detailed css specification takes precedence over a less detailed 
one. So

button
{
   font: xyz;
}

will always take precedence over

*
{
   font: xyz;
}

Because the first is more detailed.

For equally important specifications the file in which the snippet is defined 
will define the precedence. From lowest precedence to highest:

- Chosen gtk theme (Adwaita by default)
- Gtk level css overrides (in GTK_CONFIG_DIR/gtk.css) 
- GnuCash built-in colors
- User level css overrides (in GNC_CONFIG_DIR/gtk-3.0.css)

So if you want to override a gnucash built-in color, you should be able to do 
so in the User level css override, but you should take care to make your css 
definitions sufficiently detailed so they become at least equally important as 
the internally defined ones.

Regards,

Geert

Re: [GNC] PriceQuotes and AlphaVantage assistance request

[Megagrumpy]

I do not know how to link to a previous message but the workaround posted on
Sep 08 by Ameet Sengar, where he provides instructions to delay the requests
to Alphavantage, works very well and I am now consistently getting 100% of
my 50 plus quotes. Hopefully this link works -
