00:24:12 <chris> jralls: last commit adds toolbar on register when --extra is enabled. I hadn't considered this also happens in the non-stock register. If this is undesirable in current maint please let me know / feel free to revert.

01:04:34 <chris> jralls: alternatively the "Assistant" toolbar button should be hidden if register shows non-stock acconut
01:14:11 <chris> an acconut sounds yummy

19:32:19 <jralls> chris, yes, got it in one.
19:33:12 <jralls> chris Yum, salt-roasted acconuts.
19:35:08 <jralls> As for the stock assistant toolbar button, hiding UI elements is frowned upon by the HIG writers. They say one should inactivate controls that don't apply in the current context.

22:12:28 <milesrout> im having trouble with fractional values. i purchased some shares and the cost is recorded by the broker as a transaction fee of 0.12438 NZD, but when I try to enter this as a commission expense in GNUcash it insists on rounding to 0.12. I have the smallest fraction on the commission expense account set to 1/10000 and it doesnt seem to help
22:13:03 <milesrout> i also tried entering it as a fraction (12438/100000) and it still just results in 0.12
22:13:56 <milesrout> the 'fraction traded' field for the NZD security is 1/100, which makes sense for normal transactions (and I certainly wouldn't want 4 or 5 decimal places for normal accounting purposes) but for this particular account and share transactions in general i'd like to have more precision
22:14:07 <milesrout> also that fraction traded field in the security editor is greyed out anyway
22:14:20 <milesrout> im on 4.10
22:15:49 <milesrout> do i need to create a new currency that is 'high precision new zealand dollar', use that as the currency of the brokerage account, convert at a 1:1 exchange rate when I transfer funds into it, and price all the shares in that currency?
