I filed a bug a few days ago on this.
The issue seems to be that the Don't Autocomplete option only works
using a mouse. If you select it, then TAB, ENTER, or ESC, the
autocomplete happens anyway.

I'm on Win 11 Gnucash 5.3 and I do have the same problem.
An actual example: I wanted to change an existing transaction description
from "Vodafone bill" to "Outstanding Vodafone bill". I put the cursor at
the start of the old text and typed "Outstanding ". The description (still

I'm not usually in the habit of shutting down GnuCash often, but I'll
give it a few cycles and see what happens.
So far, any new memos started to auto-fill for subsequent transactions.
It might be linked to the key sequence when selecting a match for

I am on Ventura, and it seems odd; sometimes it is autofilling, and
sometimes it isn't. Maybe 5.3 restarted from scratch?
Or, if I'm remembering correctly, prior to this release, if I backspaced

Maybe that fact should be in the FAQ? Certainly it was often asked how
to edit the auto-fill in the previous iteration and that likely could
have been added.
I haven't checked, but perhaps a Documentation bug for tracking
regarding an explanation of how this now works would be in order if
I'm pretty sure there aren't any options for autofill; therefore, there won't
be any entries in the FAQ for them.

Huh. Two possibilities: I have only a few future transactions, not enough to
move the blank transaction that far up the screen, and I wonder if that marker
transaction (with no debit or credit value) matters.

It combines finding the most recent, and most likely, with a list of all

Also as of 5.3 you can use escape tab to cancel match and move on with

I think 5.3 shortened the list and gave priority to most recently used,
as well as added a Do Not Fill option at the top.
I understand keyboards vary, but you can use the arrow keys to navigate

There is AFAIK no general way to turn off auto-completion but when it is
initiated and highlights a transaction which it thinks is a match, there is a
popup "Don't autocomplete" above that first matching transaction which allows
you to choose not to autocomplete by clicking on it. The

It all works great EXCEPT the autofill on the description in the register.
