[GNC] Problems with a new installation

[Eric H. Bowen]

I've been using Gnucash under Windows 10 and Linux for a couple of years
now with no real issues. However, when I attempted to install the
program (4.0) for my father's use on his Windows 10 laptop I ran into a
couple of very frustrating issues.

The first: Dad's 88. To ease the strain on his eyes he has a large
external monitor hooked up to his laptop, and that external monitor is
designated as his main monitor. However, when Gnucash was installed it
would only open on the much smaller built-in monitor on the laptop. Yes,
I can drag the screen across to the main monitor, but any and every
action...reconciliation, import of transactions, even choosing an action
from a drop-down menu...opens up on the small laptop screen. I haven't
found any way to force these windows onto the main monitor. It makes the
program virtually unusable.

Another issue was the import of transactions. His credit union offers
.QFX downloads, which import into Gnucash. However, the debits appear as
credits and the credits appear as debits. I know how to resolve this
problem with .CSV imports, but I've never had this issue importing .QFX
and I'm not sure how to correct it.

Thanks for any assistance.
