[GNC] Accelerator Key for Jump button

[Deva -]

Sorry, yes - the file you located in $HOME/Library/Application Support/ appears to be the one you have to edit.

Yes, CMD-S is a problem for split action, so I use CMD-L instead. That works for me.

Cheers.

Thanks, Deva.

I had been looking for all instances of osx_accel_map, which had been referred to in that thread, but I only found one copy:

/Applications/Gnucash 3.5.App/Contents/Resources/share/gnucash/ui/osx_accel_map

The file in $HOME/Library/Application Support/ is "accelerator-map", and editing that has activated Cmd-J for me.

I thought I could introduce Cmd-S to split a multi-split transaction before using Cmd-J, but my edit was annulled the next time I opened GnuCash - presumably because Cmd-S is already taken, albeit by a commented out line in “accelerator_map”.
