[GNC] 4.0 and Change in Column Widths

[John Ralls]

Yes, as I explained to David yesterday we decided that that feature needed a re-think for the general registers. The primary motivation was to be able to make layout changes sticky for Bills, Invoices, and Vouchers so we limited it to those (and the new menu items are in the View instead of the Windows menu) and left the account registers as-is. We hope to sort out the issues with general registers and reintroduce it there in a few months. Unfortunately I didn't get the release notes adjusted correctly. I've since fixed them at www.gnucash.org and GitHub.

Regards,
John Ralls
