56 Add Go-To-Account Arrows to Transactions and Account Views was updated
  • Randy Becker
    Randy Becker commented at 4:55 PM

    I don't think so, but I'm not sure I understand #11.

    In moneyGuru, in the Net Worth and in the Profit/Loss views, double-clicking on an account (or clicking on ...

    Isn't this a duplicate of #11?

    (from [56]) [#3] When changing the ref transaction of a schedule, reset spawn cache (so that the changes are actually reflected in the spawns right away).

55 Ability to Select Multiple Accounts Simultaneously was updated

53 Create Account Groups for Imported Categories with Subcategories was updated
  • Virgil Dupras
    Virgil Dupras commented at 8:43 AM

    I'm not sure that the QIF format includes group names. If I'm not mistaken, they're part of the account name (like "group name:account name"). If #55 is to be i...

    That did it. Thanks!

  • Virgil Dupras
    Virgil Dupras commented at 8:47 PM

    (and you don't even need the [:], sorted copies the iterable)

  • Virgil Dupras
    Virgil Dupras commented at 8:45 PM

    Oh, yeah, I'm stupid, sort() returns None. The correct line would be accounts = sorted(self.document.accounts[:], key=lambda a: a.name)

  • Randy Becker
    Randy Becker commented at 8:41 PM

    Hmm... I made the change, but then I get two errors when I try to delete an account:

    Looking at the other tickets, I guess this is similar to #24, and contemplated in #11.

    Yeah, I think that you have to install it from source (I have 0.4.2 installed, so I think that is what I did)

    Is ElementTree also required? I installed it, but I'm still get the same error.

    It's strange. This is a line where the parse method from ElementTree (which is in Python's stdlib) is called. What version of Python do you have? What happens w...
