Feature requests re: accounts total and attachment links

Post by YetAnotherUsername »

I have a couple of feature requests that I think would be useful in AceMoney...

Selectively Include / Exclude Accounts from Total on the Accounts screen
This could be managed simply with a checkbox to the right of each account in the accounts list (all checked by default, of course, with persistence across sessions) and a checkbox on the top to check/uncheck all.

Click the paperclip icon by a transaction to open the attachment
Or, in the case of multiple attachments, a context menu listing the attachments?

This is a peer support forum. Feature requests should be submitted to MechCAD Support instead.

A lot of people are still waiting for the Accounts screen to gain collapsing/expanding groups. That would be a more useful enhancement that should be done first. That was promised years ago and never delivered.

That would be a nice enhancement.

D'oh! Sorry, I'll use that link instead.

The idea behind the checkboxes is to quickly review your bottom line without certain accounts, maybe to help decide where to put your money, what bills to pay off first, etc.

I think the expand/collapse feature would be useful as well.

Makes sense. On the other hand, maybe you can use a Report for that instead?
