Hello GnuCash users,
I routinely print invoices to PDF. To help ensure quality and
consistency in the output, I have tuned both the "default" style sheet
and the report layout I use to generate these invoices. On multiple (low
single digits) macOS machines (Monterey 12.6.5, mix of Intel and Apple
Silicon), I sync the GnuCash data and config via an ownCloud instance.
A side-effect of installing the upgrade from 4.13 to 4.14 was that the
report "Options->Layout->Row 1 Left" setting changed from "Company name,
address and tax ID" [0] to "Empty space" [1]. I suspect this change is a
consequence of:
Bug 798717
Reports > Business > Fancy Invoice duplicates company details
My concern and uncertainty is about whether this bug fix should have
affected a configuration derived from canned report specifically to
affix the layout, where the derived configuration is no longer clearly
tied to the original, canned report. I would not expect that installing
a minor update would result in a change this substantial. Am I missing
something, should I be reporting this as a regression against 798717,
does this seem like a new bug, or something else?
Thank you,
John

which is why I posted them separately.
