Bug Description

It would be nice to see uncategorized transaction in bold or italic or colored in transaction view (see example screenshot from YNAB). This helps to identify uncategorized transactions quickly after importing QIF/CSV files.

- YNAB has fixed color theme, which is not the case for GTK+ where user can use theme and/or change everything theirself, so a warning icon with tooltips might be safer and still accurate

- you have a filter Status with uncategorised for that already

Yes, thanks. I can live with the filter Status with uncategorised for now.

Hi,

What I have in mind finally is below. I am not a fan of surcharging the interface with an icon or color without a clear message/user scenario to give freedom to act or not to act. Tell me if it make sense that way.

so at last:
- test if account (part of the budget,caus other may have no category and no matter about it) has some uncategorised txn
- maybe: display a warning in main your account listview
- if account is opened into the register
  + warning banner at top with link to filter on uncategorised
