05:08:23 <daedeloth> 'morning
05:08:37 <daedeloth> I was wondering if it is possible to further edit the invoice templates
05:08:45 <daedeloth> like, access the actual css or something
05:27:23 *** q1 has left #gnucash
05:46:07 <daedeloth> aait, apparently there is no css :p
05:46:21 <daedeloth> but for some reason the "font configuration" doesn't work here
05:46:29 <daedeloth> so I'm printing invoices in huge letters

06:55:23 <daedeloth> is it me or doesn't the font config do anything?

08:58:12 <farma> my problem is : i want to write my own little accounting application, so i need the german SKR03 and SKR04 in my database.... but i cant find some sql scripts or something like this
08:58:34 <farma> so i want to ask you where you got this scripts ?
09:00:40 <warlord> it's an XML file
09:01:27 <farma> ah ok, so its in the repository ... then i will look there, thank you :)
09:03:24 <warlord> accounts/de/
09:03:58 <farma> thank you :)

09:25:14 *** mib_qhqafm has joined #gnucash
09:26:37 <mib_qhqafm> Question about file backend support: Does GnuCash support all of its features using either sqlite3 or xml files (using the latest version 2.3.8)?
09:30:06 <mib_qhqafm> I'm asking because of the answer to FAQ question 3.14 noting the SQL backend lacks business support features.
09:31:04 <warlord> 2.3.8 isn't a stable release, it's a testing release.. so the FAQ is still correct (about the latest stable, 2.2.9)
09:31:20 <warlord> the in-testing SQL support *is* fully functional.
09:31:49 <mib_qhqafm> OK. I wasn't sure about that. Thank you.
09:32:58 <warlord> what weren't you sure about?
09:33:22 <mib_qhqafm> Whether the FAQ was referring only to the stable release.
09:33:45 <mib_qhqafm> Since the stable release doesn't even support sqlite (I think).
09:37:02 <warlord> Correct, it does not.
09:37:20 <warlord> But.. there WAS a SQL implementation in older versions.. (Postgres)
09:38:34 <mib_qhqafm> OK, I wasn't aware of that.
09:39:05 <mib_qhqafm> Thank you for your help.

10:53:53 *** shade304 has joined #gnucash
10:54:35 <shade304> When I print checks the date runs of the page
10:56:41 <shade304> off that is
10:57:18 <warlord> Maybe your check format is broken?
10:57:24 <shade304> I am printing with Helvetica Neue LT Pro 12pt, I changed it to 10pt and it is still the same
10:57:40 <shade304> maybe, I have it set to the default
10:58:12 <shade304> I think the problem is the date is left justified instead of right
10:58:36 <shade304> default, well..
10:58:50 <shade304> Quicken/QuickBooks (tm) US-Letter
10:59:19 <shade304> I had the date set to name and it ran over, so I changed to Abbreviation, but still
10:59:46 <shade304> I have blocking turned on, so that may be making the date not fit
11:02:24 *** farma has quit IRC
11:02:41 <warlord> Are you sure that's the right check format?
11:05:57 <shade304> I think, but maybe not, I am using Form#7000 Standard Check Refills, 3 per page, they are 3.5" tall. I am printing the MICR / address info with glabel and have moved all the fields to accommodate the way it prints normally
11:06:47 <shade304> My printer is HP2727 laser, and it can only print within an 1/8" of the right side of the page
11:08:30 <shade304> If I change the font to 8 it will print with the date format set to "Number"
11:09:32 <shade304> It looks like the date is lined up with the dollars, and because December is a long month it runs off the page
11:11:11 <shade304> I guess I could make a new Check format and start the date 2/3 across the page just in case to give extra room, but I think it would look better if it always lined up with the right margin
11:11:47 <shade304> Or print with small fonts
11:13:49 <shade304> where is the Quicken/Quickbooks template file? I just need to change the date y ?
11:18:05 <shade304> also what is the default font size?
11:33:44 <warlord> Sorry, I dont know the default font size. The checks are in src/checks/
11:35:11 <shade304> Thanks, for now I just changed to a small font, no blocking, short date, no century
11:37:12 <shade304> I think my expectations where to high, I am glad to be able to print checks, the top/middle/bottom option is a check and time saver

17:50:34 <Promit> hi, just started using gnucash and i'm trying to set up an invoice
17:50:40 <Promit> but the Terms drop-down is empty
17:50:44 <Promit> it just has None
17:54:16 <warlord> Did you set up any BillTerms?
17:54:35 <Promit> never heard of them, where can i do that?
17:54:42 <warlord> Business menu
17:54:50 <Promit> ah, i got it
17:54:56 <warlord> That's why the Terms drop-down is empty -- you haven't configured any.
17:55:20 <Promit> it'd be nice if it had some defaults like Net30, that's okay though
17:56:01 <warlord> True, it would be nice... Patches welcome!
17:56:24 <Promit> i've already got two projects of my own and a company to run :(
17:57:53 <warlord> ok
18:14:19 <Promit> so are there master lists of customers, invoices etc or do I always have to go through find <X> ?
18:15:16 <jsled> regexp=.* :/
18:15:28 *** andyt has quit IRC
18:18:05 <Promit> it works i suppose
18:27:16 <Promit> hm, so i set up a stylesheet with my logo image, but when i go to print with that stylesheet it shows up as a missing image
18:27:19 <warlord> or just regex=.
18:27:35 <warlord> 2.2.x style sheets are.... not good.
18:28:47 <Promit> is there a workaround?
18:30:00 <warlord> not in 2.2
18:30:14 <warlord> pre-print the paper with your logo?
18:30:35 <Promit> i'm actually sending it as a PDF
18:30:43 <Promit> it's not a deal breaker...just unfortunate
18:30:52 <warlord> Sorry.
18:30:52 <Promit> can i pull a SVN or nightly build that will work better?
18:31:22 <warlord> 2.3.x works better because of webkit and CSS.. but it's an alpha release, so ....
18:32:10 <Promit> so the usual warnings apply, i know the story :)
18:33:04 <Promit> is that "Thank you for your patronage" bit changeable in 2.2 or 2.3?
18:34:44 <warlord> yes, in the report options.
18:35:20 <Promit> oh, of course
18:35:46 <Promit> i just finished final exams, you'll understand i'm a bit shot at the moment :P
18:41:11 <Promit> oh, i'll just export to HTML and set it up
18:49:25 <warlord> k
18:49:27 <warlord> that works too
