[GNC] Net Worth Linechart report - can't select hidden accounts

[D.]

I see the same behavior with GC 4.8 under Windows 10, with the Net Worth Linechart as well as with other reports that use the View Hidden Accounts option. It's probably related to the fix for bug 363339 (https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=363339), which was closed as fixed in 2009. Odd that no one noticed before this. 

As a short term fix, I'd unhide the accounts in question, which can be quickly done from the Chart of Accounts page if you have the hidden flag set to show in the tree. You can check and uncheck as many accounts as you like (of course, set the view to show hidden accounts).

By the way, it usually takes a little more time for people to respond to issues raised on the list-- especially when the issue is a technical one, like this one is. Patience is a virtue.

Just bumping this question. Does anyone have experience or thoughts on this? 

Thanks,
