More about this one, with screenshots taken yesterday, while the issue was visible:

The data displayed for amount and balance are incorrect for while a transaction is pending:

There should be a single -0.192 transaction at 23:00, as seen in the second screenshot,
but instead, Electrum was showing 2 positive transactions, +5.376 and +5.184? With
some addresses I don't recognize - quite possibly these are some of my change addresses
I suspect:



My wallet balance should be around 20 BTC, not 30 - Once the transactions get confirmed, the data is OK again:
 



Perhaps a bug in commit 12e2b8d ?

[EDIT]  Tried to reproduce the issue this morning, but can't.

Nope, the same thing still happens (just tested again)...
But the download / address generation seems to be a bit faster now!

I think there's a new bug that shows bad data for transactions and wallet balance while they are pending. Probably related to the 'display coins sent to change address' commit. I will post some screenshots tomorrow, can't right now as I'm posting from my phone.

No problem, I don't get such good donations every day... I don't have DejaVu here, but below is a preview of the GUI with Consolas, size 12. Let me know if you would you like that and I can make the release tomorrow morning.

Thanks for fixing those little issues so fast.

Thanks a lot for your feedback and cool donation! Very motivating.

That font ('Fixedsys') only has one size I'm afraid (as you can verify in notepad for example).
However if you have another font on your system that you would prefer to use, I'll be happy to
make a custom build for you.

(Note that for the number alignments to look right, the font needs to be a monospace/fixed-width font)

Build 0.52 has been released!
5.9MB standalone executable, with console support.

changes in this version:
 a couple of bugfixes by ThomasV

Thanks!

Just a small thing: in the terms of use, it seems there's a word missing in the below sentence:

Hi,

I have 2 (very minor) issues to report:

1. tiny amounts (like 1 satoshi) are unexpectedly displayed in 'scientific
    notation', such as 1E-8 rather than 0.00000001.

2. i was playing around with satoshidice a little bit: the amounts returned
    by satoshidice show with a blank description, which looks a bit strange...

  (both issues can be seen in the topmost entry of the screenshot)

Other than that, everything looks great!

Great, enjoy
I also find it very convenient!

Thanks minimalB, really appreciated. And I'm glad you like the new build!

Build 0.51 for Windows has been released.
Probably my most polished build to date!

As announced in the other thread, I have found a way to add a virtual
console to my package that should support the full Electrum command-line.
All tests have proven quite good so far.

Note: I did change the font again, this time to Fixedsys (another default
Windows monospace font), for better compatibility with Vista. I think it
is quite readable too, but am open to suggestions if you don't like it...

Screenshots:

Stand-alone release 0.49d for Windows is out.

Includes all the latest and greatest fixes and features added by ThomasV.

Seems to be extremely stable.

This is also my first build that integrates a custom virtual console
with full command-line support - Just hold down the SHIFT key while starting
the application to access it.

Please note that this is an experimental feature, for advanced users only.

The parentheses problem should be fixed in 0.49d (just released).

[EDIT] Build 0.51 uses a new monospace font (Fixedsys)! I hope you like this one better.

Otherwise, if you're okay with editing Python source code, I can look up the exact file
and line to edit.

Great news, glad I could help!
I will fix the parentheses in the next build.
Regarding the font, are you talking about the GUI font or the console font?
It shouldn't be Lucida, so could you post a screenshot when you get a chance? Just so I know if this could be Vista related.

Just to clarify, the post of bitcats is about a new experimental build I made last night that includes a full console mode for Windows. See details in  this post if you feel adventurous!

Not sleeping yet

So the addresses command works for you too? Please could you also try some other commands (balance, history)  and let me know if they work?

For me, yes, the import command works fine, both in online and offline mode.

Please post screenshots of any error messages if you can, they will help me fix the issues.

OK you're lucky, I couldn't manage to sleep so I spent all night working
on a special build of release 0.49b that finally includes a console.

Please download and try it from:

Notes:
To access the console: just hold down the SHIFT key while launching electrum.
Also, when typing commands, enclose electrum with parentheses (as shown in the example screenshot)

I'm not sure it will work for you right away, but at least you should get some more detailed error messages if it doesn't. Don't hesitate to report any errors.

Great! I'm glad I could help, and I like how you really are a man of your word.
