Description Dirk Bergstrom 2007-10-23 17:56:07 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
If you change the separator, account autocompletion on separator stops working.  If you quit and restart, the new separator is recognized.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Change separator from : to /.
2. Highlight a transfer in the register, and start typing "e-x-/-g-r"
 


Actual results:
You get the account"Ex/gr".

Expected results:
Autocompletes to "Expenses/Groceries"

Does this happen every time?
Yes

Other information:
If you type "e-x-:-g-r" you do get the (almost) expected result of "Expenses:Groceries", but since the separator is now "/", that account isn't recognized.
Comment 1 Christian Stimming 2007-10-27 09:40:09 UTC 
Does this error occur on register windows that are still open, or also on register windows that you open after that change?
Comment 2 Andreas Köhler 2008-05-11 21:13:54 UTC 
No, that only happens with registers open at the time of the change.
I think r17151 on trunk should fix that.
Awaiting backport to branches/2.2 for inclusion in GnuCash 2.2.6.
Comment 3 Rolf Leggewie 2008-07-07 22:18:49 UTC 
looks like this was fixed in http://svn.gnucash.org/trac/changeset/17267

Christian, thank you for the awe-inspiring amount of commits today.  Please be sure to close out the bugs here that were fixed.
Comment 4 Andreas Köhler 2008-07-08 19:15:12 UTC 
Indeed!
I will help him :-)
Fixed for GnuCash 2.2.6.
