Problems on Windows

[Phil Richardson]

So after some prior problems with significantly degraded performance on a
5.1 release, I finally took the plunge and gave it another go by moving
from 4.8.0 to 5.2.

I'm pleased to say, I do not see the same performance issues that prompted
me to drop the 5.1 release, but all is not completely well, but much of it
is minor.

Please consider this more of a dump of information for now.

I'm pretty sure I reported the first one before - or similar issue - as it
seems way too familiar to me.

Settings: Fiscal year start date
The drop-down for the month inputs appears to be negatively impacted by
some invisible expanding spacer to the right of it, such that you cannot
see the dropdowns contents at the default settings window width - which is
not the smallest width you can make the settings window.

Without selecting the downtown,I can barely see the first two pixel columns
of the text. On selecting it, I cannot see any text at all - though you can
count 12 entries indicating it has the intended entries available.

>From the defaults, on resizing the settings window to make it larger, it
does not expand the width of the dropdown immediately, instead you need to
resize it a significant amount before the spacer relents and the dropdown
starts to resize. If making the window smaller (from default width), it
doesn't make it any worse than already described.

I suspect the spacer is there to prevent the dropdown width needlessly
taking the remaining width of the settings window, but it appears it is
quite adverse now as when there is space available for the dropdown to
consume - and should consume because its content isn't visible - it doesn't
do so.

Problems with forecast
I have a forecast set to scheduled rather than history. But the chart
currently appears to render a 5 year forecast, regardless of any settings
provided.

My forecast settings are
Days to Forecast: 90
Days of Accounts Cycle: 30
Day of Month to start Forecast: 1
Chart Detail: Totals

This set of settings should, from what I can see, essentially render
exactly the same as the networth graph available on the home summary. But
for me, it renders 5 years, a period of which cannot be considered in the
slightest.

Side note: The ability to configure the period this home page graph should
cover would be a wonderful benefit. It's something that has long annoyed me.

I would have expected the forecast function to render according to the
settings provided, allowing me to counter the inability to configure the
home page, and track more reasonable periods such as forecast 180, 365 days
worth.
