13:17:24 <David417> Hi I am having a problem when opening my datafile which started yesterday. While populating all the tabs which I leave open a pop-up appears "This account register is read only" and GnuCash stops and waits for me to check one of the two boxes with the Since Last Run window open and the splash screen stopped at Rendering a certain advanced portfolio report.
13:22:05 <David417> There is no clue as to which account is read-only or where it is actually stuck. I did recently make a few accounts placeholder accounts, but I think that I have unmarked all of those in trying to track this down. I have looked through the scheduled transactions and I do not see any that I think may be causing this
13:22:47 <David417> I have not checked every SX or every account as there are far too many
13:25:33 *** cigarshark has quit IRC
13:26:39 <David417> Could the warning be changed to read "Account Register 'foobar' is marked as a Placeholder Account so you cannot post a transaction to it....
13:27:41 <David417> then some scheme be added to search for placeholder accounts
13:28:52 *** StuM has joined #gnucash
13:28:53 <David417> then a menu item be made available in register views to View.Edit register properties?
13:29:26 <David417> View/Edit register propertie
13:29:31 <David417> s
13:29:38 *** cigarshark has joined #gnucash
13:31:57 <warlord> That dialog only appears for a placeholder account.. So you clearly missed one and one of your open registers is a placeholder
13:32:22 <warlord> David417: patches always welcome.
13:32:58 *** Ardonik has quit IRC
13:33:41 <David417> wouldn't it only appear if an attempt was made to post a transaction? or does it appear if the register window is opened?
13:33:44 *** Ardonik has joined #gnucash
13:33:53 <warlord> It appears when you open the register
13:34:05 <warlord> (to let you know the register is read-only)
13:34:32 <warlord> Another way to figure it out is to look at all your open registers -- the read-only one *should* be absent the blank split
13:35:24 <David417> what do you mean 'blank split'?
13:36:00 <warlord> would you prefer I said "empty split"? Which word is confusing you? (sorry, in a snarky mood right now -- been a LONG weekend)
13:39:01 *** StuM has quit IRC
13:39:28 <David417> I was planning to structure things so that there was a placeholder account above several brokerage accounts that open that with sub-accounts but that would trigger the warning if I understand you correctly
13:40:10 <warlord> It is arguably a bug that "Open Subaccounts" on a placeholder account brings up the dialog.
13:40:45 <David417> this is release 2.4.13
13:41:35 <warlord> I dont think 2.6 changes the behavior
13:43:13 <David417> I think that I do have that structure currently open except I thought that I cleared all the placeholder flags. You have given me an idea where to look, anyway. Thanks.
13:43:38 <warlord> Like I said, look for the register without the blank split.
14:07:31 <David417> I found a register open with no transactions. I think that is what you mean. It was marked Placeholder. I un-marked it, closed the file, and now I am waiting for it to re-open
14:08:06 <David417> I have a couple of very slow reports open
14:09:37 <David417> That particular account is an expense account with several sub-accounts.
14:11:19 <David417> It looks like I will be filing a bug report about opening with sub-accounts triggering the warning.
14:12:05 <David417> yes, that fixed the problem. Again, thanks.
14:21:34 <warlord> You're welcome.
14:21:49 <warlord> But don't file a bug report until you've tested that it's still the same behavior with 2.6.3
14:22:00 <warlord> There will be no more work done on 2.5
14:22:01 <warlord> er 2.4
