[GNC] Uneven line spacing in Accounts list since 4.11

[John Layman]

My message was hasty, as I subsequently realized that editing the Display
Symbol merely caused the related line to be redisplayed.  The redisplay does
eliminate the double spacing, but not the root of the problem.  If the file
or account tab is closed and reopened, the extra spacing reappears.  Therein
lies somewhat of a clue.

While I concur that it is showing only accounts related to securities, I am
doubtful that it has to do with security symbol. My right most column is
'Total (Period)' in which it does display symbol in accounts, and those
symbols are the same ones that are used to download quotes using  yahoo_json
source. I went as far as removing 'Display Symbol' field but the uneven line
spacing remained. And it is also not consistent in that I have uneven
spacing in accounts for which I download OFX file format for transactions or
the one that is manually maintained. 

Next trial I am going to do is remove the dark theme to see if it makes any
difference.

Note that double spacing occurs only on accounts related to securities,
which at the rightmost end of the line include the Display Symbol from the
Security Editor.  I found that editing the Display Symbol for affected lines
corrected the spacing.  It would appear that hidden characters in that field
cause double spacing.

I think since 4.11 (am using Windows 11 and a dark theme), I notice very odd
random line spacing in Account list window (the default window when I open
Gnucash)

 

I see the lines for each sub-accounts are not evenly distributed - spacing
seems completely random (some have space above and below, others do not)

 

I have attached a partial screenshot showing this uneven spacing for the
subaccounts  (if the mailing list supports attachments?)

 

Regards,

Bill
