David,

As always, thanks for the rapid response.  I know my suggestion is just 
minor tweaking so I appreciate your attention to detail.

It may look like there is a lot of  room on your display, but a lot of 
users still have rather low res displays or they (like me) just like 
to use strings containing more than 80 characters.  Two line mode is 
specifically designed to show the notes field, so to move the notes to 
the first line would render the second line useless.


I doubt that you would find very many users that would want to shrink 
the description and notes both to half their size to squeeze them into 
one line.

more than is necessary and there is plenty of room to add the
Notes field.

Thanks for all you hard work.

I can see this being useful on some accounts, but it would need to be optional.

There may be room the way you use your screen and Gnucash, but I wouldn't.
So I have some account tabs double line and some single line.

fixed field width

2018-04-07 Thread Dennis West
I'm wondering if any of the developers would consider adding the "Notes" 
field to the single line display.  I much prefer the single line display 
but hate to give up the Notes field.  As you can see from the 
attachment, the Description field takes up way more than is necessary 
and there is plenty of room to add the Notes field.


Thanks for all you hard work.
