And, a mouse-over of the bar will show each child category amount. Caveats: there is no printing for budget bars, setting a non-zero parent category budget amount will cause the bar to show only the parent category transactions, a "contra" type child category must have a budget amount that is positive or it will be added as a positive amount in the budget bar total.</p></div>avp2tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/421119772017-06-19T02:09:55Z2017-06-19T02:09:55ZCombining categories for budget monitoring<div><p>I would also like this feature.</p>
<p>From what I can see, there used to be a minus sign at the bottom left of budgets that you could click to show only the parent categories with the combined total of the child categories. Any chance of reinstituting this feature?</p>
