03:36:41 <romkyns> Is there some setting I can toggle to get the Register to display the full account name somewhere? Eg Assets:Receivables:PersonX:USD, as opposed to just USD?

04:56:10 <Rolf> warlord-afk: Would you be so kind to explain briefly the deeper reason why an invoice cannot be deleted? Is it that you don't want it be be deletable or just due to the way it was implemented technically?
04:56:20 <Rolf> Who is plongstaff, BTW?

07:40:25 <Rolf> answering my own question (the first one); http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_How_can_I_delete_an_Invoice.2C_Customer.2C_Vendor.2C_or_Employee.3F

08:50:57 <warlord> Rolf: Phil Longstaff.
08:51:08 <warlord> (working on SQL Backend)
08:51:56 <Rolf> yes, that is what I was interested in
08:51:57 <Rolf> Thanks
08:52:23 <Rolf> I guess he does not hang around in IRC?
08:52:47 <warlord> rarely
08:58:59 <warlord> As for your first question -- you can't delete it from the UI because I didn't want to implement all the checking that would be required to make sure you can do it safely.
09:10:08 *** ErKa has quit IRC
09:14:52 <Rolf> What does the ?, I and P stand for in the ledger of an accounts payable account?
09:15:22 <warlord> Unknown/Invoice/Payment
09:15:25 <warlord> (TxnType)
09:25:23 *** ErKa has joined #gnucash
09:27:20 *** nodje_ has quit IRC
09:34:34 <Rolf> Why the necessity to mark that?
09:34:49 <Rolf> I guess that should be clear from the direction of the flow of funds?
09:38:28 *** nodje has joined #gnucash
09:38:54 <warlord> I dont recall my reasoning for that.
09:39:21 *** nomeata has joined #gnucash
09:41:15 <StocksR> Could it be that you are planing to add Credit notes in the future
09:41:39 <warlord> Nah.
09:41:47 <warlord> This was done years and years ago.
09:41:54 <warlord> Credit Notes were never in my mind then
09:42:17 <warlord> (although I did try to engineer things for generic use, so...... I could just be "that good" ;)

10:03:06 <Rolf> warlord: And what is the b/n toggle with the column heading J?
10:03:20 *** donfede has joined #gnucash
10:03:25 <warlord> J??
10:03:32 <warlord> The English title is "J"?
10:03:38 <warlord> Try expanding the column?
10:09:33 *** ErKa has joined #gnucash
10:09:59 <Rolf> It is a J
10:10:13 <Rolf> But it is pretty strange in that it only shows with german locale
10:10:31 <Rolf> no Germans around today, are there?
10:11:46 <warlord> What happens in the English locale?
10:12:42 <Rolf> the column is not shown at all
10:13:23 <warlord> Huh! I have no clue what it is.
10:13:45 <warlord> If you expand the column wider more of the title doesn't show?
10:26:33 <Rolf> no, it is just a J
10:30:06 *** nodje has quit IRC
10:31:22 <warlord> Reconciled?

14:01:04 *** kirtibr has joined #gnucash
14:02:15 <kirtibr> how feasible is it to port gnucash to embedded systems/smartphones ? for eg.smartphones/ eval boards ?
14:04:22 *** sjc has joined #gnucash
14:32:39 <warlord> kirtibr: I suspect it would be a LOT of work, but the hardest part would be getting all the gtk dependences ported first.
14:33:37 <kirtibr> warlord: thanks for the response..gtk deps is not an issue
14:33:59 <kirtibr> warlord: im using an angstrom distro from ope-embedded
14:34:04 <kirtibr> *openembedded
14:34:21 <kirtibr> and it has all the gtk libs for the board i m using
14:34:22 <warlord> So it has gtk, gtkhtml, gconf, glade, ...?
14:34:36 <kirtibr> yes :) gtk,gconf,glade for sure
14:34:48 <warlord> Oh, in THAT case, it shouldn't be TOO hard.
14:42:12 *** McLANE has joined #gnucash
14:44:40 *** kirtibr has quit IRC
15:15:52 <Rolf> too bad the guy is already gone
15:16:05 <Rolf> I could have told him that I have a recipe here
15:16:39 <Rolf> But I suspect it won't work too easily because gnucash very often takes up too much screen real estate
15:17:54 <Rolf> warlord: I thought you knew I was with openembedded
15:18:10 <Rolf> and that I had an interest in getting gnucash into openembedded
15:18:32 <Rolf> (again, I think the chances of it actually working are not so good, I think)
15:19:35 <warlord> no, i didnt
15:20:30 <Rolf> Well, I think I mentioned it some time. But it is probably a good half year ago
15:22:43 <warlord> Yeah, my memory isn't that good anymore. ;)

16:20:46 *** donfede has quit IRC
16:24:11 *** McLANE has joined #gnucash
16:31:24 <lters> warlord: how hard would it be to get filter options to stick, like the ones you want?
16:32:00 <lters> I don't want to see transactions that are reconciled for example.
16:33:23 <warlord> Well, it's something you'd probably want on a per-account basis.
16:33:36 <warlord> So the question is where to store that setting.
16:49:59 <lters> I would kind of like it for them all
16:55:04 <warlord> all at once? see, that's not what *i* would want...
16:57:43 <lters> well, once a record is reconciled, I would not normally want to see it again.
16:58:06 <lters> M$money always hides reconciled records unless you request to see them.
17:05:17 *** _gunni_ has joined #gnucash
17:09:04 *** Zoolooc_ has quit IRC
17:11:33 <warlord> Oh, I can see the value in having it be global.
17:11:41 <warlord> But I also see the value in having a per-account override.
17:13:33 *** |gunni| has quit IRC
17:31:09 <warlord> As for doing the work...
17:31:37 <warlord> The global would be adding to the Edit -> Preferences page and putting it in gconf.. Then loading from gconf when you load an account.
17:31:47 <warlord> The per-account override.... not sure where to store that offhand.

19:40:04 <warlord> lters: you'd apt-get build-dep gnucash
19:40:18 <warlord> then build gnucash from source (SVN trunk preferred)
