Hi Alan

Not sure if you are seeing the same thing as I am, but in kubuntu I had to increase the maximum size to 300 not reduce it to 280.

After that I was able to successfully import a file (sans scroll bar). But not without some confusion.

Firstly if you click cancel it asks you if you want to quit or restart kmymoney?! This would be very confusing to a novice.

Secondly when importing it does not ask which category to add the transaction to if your file does not contain a category column. Should it not attempt to match the category to the payee? I know in the past when importing qif files that is how it worked and how I would expect it to work.

Lastly once you imported a file or cancelled the import you can no longer import any more files. The CSV menu item in the files menu is grayed out.

As far as testing other wizards I am not sure what I should test. I viewed a few dialogues but none looked like the import wizard and all looked ok to my inexperienced eyes.

It also doesn't render correctly on kubuntu although it does appear to
function (I haven't actually tried to import anything). The buttons are
obscured by bottom of the dialogue as shown in the attached image.
Resizing the dialogue doesn't improve the situation as the buttons
follow the lower edge.

Hi Chris,

Obviously, everything looks OK here, I'm sure you're pleased to know.
However, I can reproduce what you're seeing, although why you see this, I
don't know.

Because all the different wizard pages have to fit in the frame below the
table, I've set minimum and maximum heights for that frame, but for some
reason for you, the maximun height needs to be reduced.

To be sure this has no adverse effects for you, might you be able to make a
minor tweak to a setting via QT Designer, please, and report back.

If so, install qt4-designer, if not already installed, and load
 /home/your path/kmymoney/kmymoney/plugins/csvimport/csvdialog.ui.  On the
right, you should see listed all the various objects. The third down should > be 'frame_low'. Select that then, lower, in the properties section, select
maximumSize>Height. Change the value from 287 to, say 280. Save, then
re-compile and see how that looks, including all the other wizard pages.

Let's know how you get on, and thanks.

Allan

Following up -

I've loaded git HEAD on an Ubuntu (Unity) system and that shows the same symptoms as yours. This is because Ubuntu appear to have imposed their ideas on the CSV importer UI. When I made the change I'd suggested earlier, it fixed the problem with the dialog buttons, but then the table horizontal scroll-bar disappeared instead.

The layout margin values have all been changed and the font specified in the UI has been replaced by an Ubuntu one, with font and table line height changed, and possibly more. So much for designing a UI.

Anyway, I've needed to make a number of tweaks, but need a little more time to test.

Allan
