19:43:33 <asfasfaf> Hi. Would anyone have time for a couple of questions
19:45:33 <asfasfaf> Is there any way to completely reset gnucash? I noticed that even if I reinstall it, it seems to retain some information from the previous install.
19:47:11 <asfasfaf> The 2nd issue is that when I double click checking account like shown in the tutorial and concepts guide, the simple transaction example, I do not get what author has on their screen
19:47:54 <asfasfaf> After I type in opening balance, in the next column over I am supposed to click the Transfer icon to pick an account
19:48:09 <asfasfaf> But there is not word transfer in the box, nor is there any icon for me to click
19:54:21 <asfasfaf> It might have been how I had the setting for Default Style set. I switched it to Transaction Journal, when the author in the help file likely had it set to Basic Ledger
19:56:34 <asfasfaf> I could still use any help with how to completely reset GnuCash such that it retains no settings, even after reinstall. Thank you
20:09:54 *** mlncn has quit IRC
20:33:53 <warlord> asfasfaf: reset to what degree?
20:34:24 <warlord> when you double-click the account, what do you get?
20:35:00 <warlord> What OS/Distro are you using?

21:49:38 <asfasfaf> I just mean reset the installation of GnuCash back to all defaults, as if it were installed for the 1st time and never installed previously
21:51:17 <lmat> asfasfaf: Yeah, I forgot what settings system you're probably using...gsettings? gconf?
21:51:31 <lmat> asfasfaf: You'll have to find where those settings reside (probably registry?) and remove them if they're not being removed currently.
21:51:51 <lmat> asfasfaf: Using Transactional Journal (and probably auto-split journal), you won't see a transfer box.
21:52:11 <lmat> asfasfaf: The transfer box is for transactions with only two splits: the current account, and another, "transfer", account.
21:52:27 <lmat> asfasfaf: With the transactional journal, it's easier to enter transactions with lots of splits.
21:53:05 <asfasfaf> I dont know what type of settings, I just install and am experimenting with the program
21:53:11 <lmat> asfasfaf: If you want to enter a transaction into the "chequing" account ledger with a "transfer" account to "energy company", use two splits, dr energy company, and cr chequing.
21:54:35 <asfasfaf> that makes sense on the transfer account. I had a setting changed from the default over to displaying the transaction as a journal. I since switched it back to basic ledger and it seems to work fine
21:55:13 <asfasfaf> Currently I am experimenting with importing csv's, just using the trial and error approach
21:55:51 <asfasfaf> If I leave withdrawals empty in the .csv, there is an error, but if I put a 0 in the cells, the import goes ok..that type of thing
