Mysterious Window

[JUNIPER]

   In the 'Edit Scheduled Transactions' dialog under 'Options' 'Enabled' is x'd
   in the box. 'Create Automatically' is x'd when the amount is fixed (like
   mortgage) and constant, but not where I must need correct the amount (such
   as utility payments).
   GC works so smoothly that I usually hesitate to make changes - all too often
   I find the law of unintended consequences at work!

I'm very sorry, but I have no idea what SXes are or how to "auto-create"
anything. This new window appeared by itself after installing 2.2.1 - never
saw it before.  Under 'GnuCash Preferences' and 'Scheduled Transactions'
and 'Since Last Run Dialogue' 'Run When Data File Opened' is checked. I
suppose I can just uncheck that, but I still wouldn't know what it was
for. It only appears maybe one time in ten when starting GC. More of a
curiosity than a bother.


Sorry ... by "SXes" I mean "Scheduled transactions".

By "auto-create", I mean is the auto-create checkbox on the individual
scheduled transactions set to enabled/true?


My theory is that there is a bug in the case where there are SXes to
(auto-)create, but none that require interaction/dialog to create.  In that
case, it's not supposed to show the Since Last Run dialog, but instead a
simple message box saying "I auto created N transactions...".
