Description Philippe Debrabant 2025-11-07 17:56:18 UTC

SUMMARY
Accented letters are not accepted in the category field of a ledger transaction.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Define a category with contains the word "hôtel"
2. Display a bank account in ledger
3. Start a new transaction
4. In the category field, enter "hô" (I'm searching "hôtel" in french)

OBSERVED RESULT
"ho" is displayed in the field (not hô as expected) and the existing category (wich contains "hôtel") is not found.

EXPECTED RESULT
The existing category (wich contains "hôtel") is displayed in the search list.
KMM must accept the accented letters in this text field.
