Gap limit setting missing in 1.9?

[adamas]

I placed it immediately before the seed version. eg.

'imported_keys': {}, 'seed_version': 6}

becomes,

'imported_keys': {}, 'gap_limit': 10, 'seed_version': 6}

Doesn't work for me. Labels/addr are still red!

However, I did find that if your add a 'gap_limit': 10 at top level in the wallet file then it does behave correctly and respect new addresses. ie. red addresses become normal.

Doesn't work for me. Where exactly do you have to place it?

You don't have to mess about with the json wallet file. Just type the following in the electrum gui console:

wallet.storage.put( 'gap_limit', 100)

The above command sets it to a 100 but you can, of course, use any number you like. Remember to restart electrum after you do the above!

Yes but I want to get rid of this red color.

Then do what I said and increase the gap limit and restart electrum.

Code:

wallet.storage.put( 'gap_limit', 100)

This still works for electrum 2.0, if anyone's wondering. It'd be nice to have this exposed in the GUI though

better do this:

Code:

wallet.change_gap_limit(100)

What is the command to display current gap limit of an Electrum 1.9.8 wallet? Thanks.
