Title: qt client settings Post by: Ecurb123 on November 25, 2013, 10:49:47 PM Hello,
I downloaded the qt client in ubuntu and I don't see the settings menu. For example where is the option to encrypt the wallet? Title: Re: qt client settings Post by: deepceleron on November 26, 2013, 10:53:02 AM It's a menu option, under settings. Don't see a menu?? :
I'm running Ubuntu 12.04, You are not the first to report strangeness with Unity (the bastard pile of MacOS wannabe move-the-menu-to-the-top bs that Ubuntu slapped on Gnome in order to keep up with Windows 8 in the stupidifying of GUIs). There is an official issue here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/1242 where you can add your steps to replicate on 0.8.0.One thing I notice is that the menu (File, Help, & such) does not seem to display if the program is shut down, and then restarted. If the window is maximized, these items show up again. The workaround is sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop. Title: Re: qt client settings Post by: Ecurb123 on November 26, 2013, 06:03:07 PM Yep that was it! Maximized the window and there they are. Thanks so much!
Title: Re: qt client settings Post by: Ecurb123 on November 27, 2013, 09:12:59 PM One more quick question. Now that I've encrypted my wallet, when do I need to unencrypt it? I'm guessing it's when I go to actually send btc, because that would seem to be the time when it will be needed.
