Budget view getting wider every restart

Created attachment 282405 [details] Budget view wider than needed; need to scroll to see totals When I open a budget and keep the window open when closing and starting gnucash again, the budget "table" becomes wider and seeing the complete total column requires scrolling. The first time opening it did not require scrolling, so there should be enough space. See the attached image. When I make the account column narrower everything except the totals column comes to the left, so I end up with a very wide totals column that still requires scrolling to the right to view properly. I can get the total width right, so it doesn't show the scrollbars but that requires me to make the account name column narrower, reduce the window size, quit gnucash, start gnucash and return to the original window size, though doing that's a nuisance. Especially since the budget view becomes wider every time. The version I am using is gnucash 2.6.3 rev 4e4a032+ on Debian unstable. I already mentioned this on IRC at 03-08-2014, where it was suggested that I should file this bug report. When comparing the saved files from gnucash I see that the name_width for the budgets is incremented by 15 each and every time I restart: --- financien.gnucash.gcm.orig 2014-08-03 10:02:55.422968198 +0200 +++ financien.gnucash.gcm.new 2014-08-03 10:03:21.674969295 +0200 @@ -282,7 +282,7 @@ notes_width=0 tax-info_visible=false tax-info_width=0 placeholder_visible=false -name_width=1038 +name_width=1053 [Register 00000000000000000000000000000000] date_width=90 @@ -584,7 +584,7 @@ price_visible=true [Budget 96c956f4be8524335c785c06ff3b9be1] column_order=name;type;commodity;account-code;description;lastnum;present;present_report;balance;balance_report;balance-period;cleared;cleared_report;reconciled;reconciled_report;last-recon-date;future_min;future_min_report;total;total_report;total-period;account-color;notes;tax-info;placeholder; -name_width=1098 +name_width=1113 type_visible=false type_width=0 commodity_visible=false
the same happens in Gnucash portable for Windows, version 2.6.3
