Just a request to consider adding the option to customer the colors used for unconfirmed, downloaded transactions... similar to how we currently can customize past versus future transactions.

Although I know a ~ header row appears in the registor now ("X Unconfirmed Transaction") if have a screenful of posted transations as well as unconfirmed transactions that header row can just get ~ "lost in the noise".

Thx

    Hi gbonawitz,

    Try this...

    In the upper, right-hand corner of the register there is a 'Split Window' button to the right of the 'New Transaction' button.
    Clicking on it will separate out any unconfirmed transactions from the rest of the register.

    Downloaded unconfirmed transactions should have a filled blue circle in the description field no other transactions will have this.

    Hi Kevin and dwg.

    To be clear: I'm talking about looking at the register, and I see confirmed transactions ~ on the top, a divider "row" (for lack of a better term) "X Unconfirmed Transcations", and then a list of unconfirmed transactions...
    Kind of like this

    Confirmed transaction #1
    Confirmed transaction #2
    Confirmed transaction #3
    Confirmed transaction #4
    Confirmed transaction #5
    X Unconfirmed transcations
    Unconfirmed transaction #1
    Unconfirmed transaction #2
    Unconfirmed transaction #3
    Unconfirmed transaction #4
    Unconfirmed transaction #5

    Yep I understand and see that confirmed transactions have a blue outline only circle, and unconfirmed hav a solid blue circle.

    All that I'm saying is that if your screen is full of transactions its easy to missing the ~ grouping/where that divider row is (least for me).

    Maybe an easier suggestion is just to be able control the look of that "X Unconfirmed Transactions Bar" - if I could change the background color of that it might be easier.

    Admittedly the current experience is not horrible; I considerr this a nice "cherry on top" change request (that I'd think would be pretty easy to implement.

    Thanks again for your feedback/suggestions.

    Set up a Custom Theme and change the 'Header background gradient 1' and Header background gradient 2. (see screenshot)

    @Maddy, N.P. :)
    @ gbonawitz, Strictly as an FYI, changes to those above 2 settings will also affect the header row of reports.
