12:16:00 <mes> Hi, I have a machine that just lost access to fonts. Gnucash shows only hexadec codes when characters should be. Enlightenment 16 and hexchat also do the same thing
12:16:19 <mes> Is it gtk that does font rendering?

12:41:57 <jralls> mes Cairo--https://cairographics.org--does all of the drawing on Gtk apps.
12:42:18 <jralls> mes What OS are you using?

12:52:02 <mes> jralls, this is funtoo, gnucash 4.8 is cairo related to pango?
12:53:12 <mes> yes I see gnucash is linked to libpangocairo.x
12:53:22 *** kcin has joined #gnucash
12:54:18 *** Mechtilde has quit IRC
12:54:32 *** andreas^ has quit IRC
12:54:35 <jralls> mes, pango computes the layout--the size of the box to enclose the text--but cairo collects the glyphs and places them on the canvas.
12:55:39 <jralls> mes Fontconfig and Freetype are responsible for selecting the font based on your config and feeding the glyphs to cairo.
12:56:23 <mes> OK, hexchat also uses pango/cairo, so does e16
12:57:07 <jralls> Yes, everything Gnome uses those 4 libraries.
12:59:42 <jralls> Fontconfig's config in /usr/etc/fonts/fonts.conf is the first place to look if nothing is finding glyphs.
13:00:09 <mes> something must have screwed one of them up. know of a quick way to debug? I see you answered my question
13:00:47 <jralls> Next would be ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini to make sure that you have a valid default font.
13:01:43 <jralls> Arch Linux's wiki has a nice page on fontconfig configuration: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/font_configuration

13:30:41 <andreas^> when I change a setting in the global preferences and quit Gnucash, a prompt appears asking if I want to save the file.
13:31:28 <andreas^> I want the last book used to open automatically. as it is now, Gnucash presents me with an empty book.
13:32:09 *** guak has quit IRC
13:33:00 <jralls> fell, Martin Preuss seems to be having webserver problems again today.
13:33:59 *** CDB-Man_ has quit IRC
13:35:33 <jralls> andreas^ For the first does GnuCash prompt you to save if you don't change preferences? (That's Help>Preferences rather than File>Properties, right?)
13:36:00 <andreas^> Edit>Preferences
13:36:45 <andreas^> jralls: if I go into Edit>Preferences and then quit Gnucash, I am asked if I want to save the file.
13:37:03 <andreas^> if I start and quit Gnucash, no prompt.
13:40:54 <jralls> That's odd. I don't see that behavior. Are you changing any prefs? What OS?
13:41:17 <andreas^> jralls: first I changed a pref but now I didn't.
13:41:28 <andreas^> I'm on Parabola GNU/Linux-libre x86_64.
13:46:38 <jralls> Dunno. Nothing in the prefs dialog--especially just opening and closing it--should mark the book dirty.
13:47:12 <andreas^> I have many introduced problems with this upgrade.
13:49:48 <jralls> Upgrade as in pacman -Syuu or as in pacman -S gnucash?
13:50:08 <andreas^> jralls: pacman -Syu
13:51:49 <andreas^> I copied the example CSS file on the wiki into .config/gnucash and some of the stuff is better, especially after I increased font sizes but cash flow still has a small font.
13:52:31 <jralls> Report fonts are controlled by the style sheet, use Edit>Style sheets to adjust.
13:53:16 <jralls> That wouldn't have anything to do with the MRU list or preferences dirtying the book though.
13:53:38 <andreas^> when I open my book, the lower bar says: "$: Net Assets: $0.00 Profits: $0.00"
13:58:03 <jralls> OK. That bar is often wrong for people with complex books. As long as the totals on the Accounts page look OK I don't worry about it.
14:10:30 <andreas^> it's almost like settings are not saved anymore.
14:12:20 <jralls> Ah, that might be. Did GnuCash get upgraded to 4.8?
14:12:34 <andreas^> jralls: yes.
14:14:35 <jralls> We changed the GSettings schema path from org.gnucash to org.gnucash.GnuCash because flatpak wouldn't work right with the old one. GnuCash is supposed to migrate the settings the first time you open it but several users have had problems with it.
14:15:45 <andreas^> I have migrated it manually. I copied the config.
14:16:53 <jralls> Unsuccessfully, IIRC from here a few days ago.
14:17:09 <jralls> fell was trying to help you.
14:17:51 <andreas^> hmm.
14:18:31 *** sbluhm has quit IRC
14:18:33 <andreas^> I did what he said.
14:18:37 <jralls> gjanssens is the one who really knows how it works.
14:20:05 <jralls> He instructed another user on https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798330. You might have a look at that to see if you can figure out what's still not working.

21:22:18 <ArtGravity> I managed to force it by making the shares and the buy match and not sweating the price.
