Comment 11 for bug 1756681

Hi Maxime,
For some reason, I cannot log into Launchpad. It shows me logged in and
when I go to the Homebank site and click report bug, it gives me an Oops
messages.

I have downloaded and using version 5.3 and wanted to provide some comments.

The manage scheduled/template transactions dialog isn't as nice as before.
The prior dialog allowed you to do everything in one screen but now you
click the + button, enter the information, add, then push the schedule
button, and set the schedule. That is a lot of unnecessary and painful
clicking. Just have it all in one dialog like before. Don't be like
microsoft who changes things just to change things, if it is isn't broken,
don't fix it.

The other thing is in the edit transaction dialog. You used to be able to
click the "-" sign on the right of the amount to quickly add the "-", now
it adds the "-" and deducts 1 cent so now I have to manually hit the "-" on
the keyboard.

I don't really understand the Expense/Income/Transfer at the top of the
Edit Transaction dialog, it doesn't appear that they do anything. Nothing
changes be expense and income and the only difference with the transfer is
that it changes the account/payment to from/to. If you are in the expense
or income, you can do the same from the Payment list.

Also on the add transaction dialog, the dropdown for status is painful.
Again, too much clicking. Much better when it was just horizontal buttons.

Ideally, the less clicking required for any interaction is better. Less
chance for errors and less hassle for users.

Thanks again for all of your work on this. I may switch back to an older
version until you update since, I don't think 5.3, is as good as prior
verisons.
