[GNC] Date column width

[Jesse Ayers]

Using GnuCash 4.10, Build ID: 4.10+(2022-03-26) on a Mac laptop, OS10.13.6

For the register/ledger of any account, the default width for the date column is fine until one clicks on a date to edit it. Then the date numbers are wider than the column so that the date can no longer be read. This widening appears to be because once a cell in the date column is selected, there appears a downward pointing arrow icon that opens a calendar to use in date editing.

I can manually drag the column width to be wider, but the dragging applies only to the one account that is open and no others (does not widen universally) and further, the new column width is not “remembered,” so that the next time I open GNC, the column width is reset to the default “too narrow."

Has anyone else run into this?  Is there s fix that does not require programming?
