[GNC] Possible to Set and Save an Individual Register's Default Style?

Kalpesh,

Actually, what I found was that the Register Style (just like Column 
Width) DOES persist across GnuCash restarts.  That part does work as 
expected.  What DOESN'T work is that only the Column Widths are being 
saved during the restart, and not the Register Style.

If the Column Widths are being saved, why wouldn't that include the 
Register Style?  It seems like a program bug (or maybe a feature 
request?) that could be fixed just by saving the current Style setting 
at the same time that the Column Widths are being saved.

I'm still relatively new to GnuCash; but hasn't anyone else commented on 
this issue before?

Tom
