Gyle,

I just tried duplicating what you described here; but that's not what's 
happening for me.  I changed a view on one of my open tabs to 
Transaction Journal. and then after that I changed Register Defaults -> 
Default Style to Auto-Split Ledger.  And that updated Default Style 
applies to everything.  The only thing I had to do was to close the open 
tab and then reopen it.  When that tab reopened the View was set to 
Auto-Split Ledger.  Are you closing and then reopening the tab that you 
previously set to Transaction Journal?

However, tabs that have been changed, such as those I changed to "Transaction Journal", do not change.  I have manually changed them to "Auto-split Ledger", but if I decided to go back to "Basic Ledger", I would have to change these manually again.  Is there a way to tell Gnucash that I want all tabs to go to the default view?  It would be great if on the individual tab view there was also an option for the "Default" in addition to the "Basic Ledger", "Auto-split  Ledger", and "Transaction Journal".
