G2 Testing - Scheduled Transactions/Register

[Volker Englisch]

I did some more testing with SX:

- Creating a new SX
   It appears that the values for the "Days in Advance" for a new SX are
   being populated from the defaults listed in the preferences for
   'Scheduled Transactions' even when the preferences are unchecked.

   Set the values in the preferences to anything other then '0', then
   uncheck the options.
   Now create a new SX. The values from the preferences are being used
   _and_ the options are checked by default.

- Creating a new SX
   I'm setting the frequency of the transaction and the start date. After
   this I want to specify the transaction and click anywhere in the
   transaction template.
   This causes the start date and the displayed calendar view to change
   to 2004-01-01.

- Saving a new SX crashes GC.  The message
     unknown, but with movement
   is displayed 50 times on the console.
   (I had this come up twice but can't recreate it right now)
   I am, however, able to save a new SX if I don't enter anything in the
   transaction template.

- Running the 'Since Last Run' I have a single transaction with status
     Ready to create
   The information for the split for this SX is not displayed in the
   Transaction Template.  When I click on the transaction to display
   the split, GC crashes.
   However, if I click the forward button, the 'Transaction Review'
   window appears and the program runs into a loop and the window size
   increases.  The bottom of the window moves towards the bottom of the
   screen and the window needs to be canceled.  The transaction is
   applied, though.

- Display of upcoming transactions
   When displaying the upcoming transactions by means of clicking in
   the calendar and hovering over the calendar dates, the small window
   first gets created in the upper left corner of the screen displaying
   the correct information in regards to the mouse position.
   As soon as the mouse gets moved, though, the small window follows the
   mouse pointer.
   The width of the window isn't changing with the dates and appears to
   always be the largest window size displayed so far during the current
   GC session.

- Register (SX transaction template)
   (I think these are problems with the register and not the SX)
   When entering the transaction in the template the pointer is not
   visible when I move from one field to the next using the TAB key
   or using a mouse click.  The pointer becomes visible when I start
   typing or when I click in the field a second time.

- Register (SX transaction template)
   When entering the account like this
      ex:u:
   to jump to
      Expenses:Utilities
   and then open the account list manually (GC1.8 opens the account list
   automatically) I should be able to see the accounts under Utilities.
   However, the account list does not display with the
   Expenses:Utilities account in view.  Instead, the list displayed is
   the top of the accounts list.

- Register (SX transaction template)
   Entering a value (e.g. '20.00') without entering an account or a memo
   for the first split causes everything else entered so far to be reset
   when tabbing to the second split.
