How do I change the "Currency" of an account? When I open the Account -> Edit Account window I see the Currency Type: field (see attachment screen capture). There appears to be "change options" available by the greyed out up/down symbols at the right end of that field but I am unable to activate them. Seems like there should be a way to do this short of completely deleting the account and re-creating it which is not desirable as it would delete all transactions.

    You can use the Toolbox extension to force change and account's currency.

    No transactions will have their amount recalculated, only the designated currency of the account will be changed.
