11:26:39 <gjanssens> English help requested:
11:27:12 <gjanssens> I'm looking for a fairly short word to describe an element that differentiates two transactions
11:28:25 <gjanssens> This is to be used in the csv importer to assign to a column that can be used to tell "if two adjacent lines in the import source have the same value in this column, they really belong to the same transaction"
11:29:18 <gjanssens> Or actually more precisely: if two adjacent lines in the input source have a different value in the column they will be treated as being part of different transactions
11:29:40 <gjanssens> "Transaction differentiator" probably does the trick, but it's rather long...
11:31:16 <gjanssens> And I'm not even sure that's the proper way to say this in English
11:31:23 <gjanssens> So... better suggestions ?
11:32:55 <gjanssens> jralls: thanks for your feedback on the smart pointers by the way
11:33:05 <gjanssens> I did indeed go with a shared_ptr

12:39:34 <fell> gjanssens: txn id?
12:46:57 <gjanssens> fell: thanks but not generic enough. Any field in the import data that marks a difference between two transactions can be used here or even a combination of fields. ID is just one example of such a discriminating field, but not the only possibility.
12:47:50 <gjanssens> I want the description to focus on "anything that can discriminate one transaction from the other", not to a specific possibility.
12:50:05 <fell> discriminator
12:51:17 <gjanssens> Ok, except it should still convey this is a transaction related thing. So "Transaction Discriminator" would be an option.
12:51:23 *** mlncn has quit IRC
12:51:47 <gjanssens> Still very to put in a pulldown menu for csv columns which can be fairly small
12:52:31 <gjanssens> I don't really like to shorten this to Tx as we're in a user interface, so perhaps my only option is to go with a long name.
12:53:18 <gjanssens> Unless our native English collegues can offer something shorter that's equally to the point in this situation
12:53:31 <fell> label discriminator and tooltip with explaination
12:53:53 <gjanssens> Pull down menu's don't have tooltips :(
12:54:07 <gjanssens> (got to leave for a while)...

19:08:31 <dkcarlson> Hi. I just noticed that when purchasing stock the display for the currently selected transaction shows the number of shares purchased in both the Total Shares and Total Buy boxes, but in non-selected transactions, the Total buy box shows the total dollars spent
19:10:31 <dkcarlson> Reviewing the documentation, it appears that it has been that way for a very long time, probably over 10 years. I am currently using Release 2.6.14 in Windows 10
19:11:11 <dkcarlson> is that the way it is supposed to be, and if so, what is the rationale?
19:12:45 <dkcarlson> I forgot to mention that I am in the comodity account view
19:14:45 *** Simon has quit IRC
19:15:19 <dkcarlson> Actually, the total dollars is the amount from the buy split, not the net cost in the bank/broker line
19:17:13 <dkcarlson> I suppose that could be different if there were multiple purchase line in one transaction, but I don't think that I have such a transaction in this data file
