wish: Ability to use the rest of the program when budget is open

[Søren Halkier Christensen]

When opening Budget, the program locks the rest of the program.

It would be very usefull to be able to look at historical data, when makeing/updating the budget.

Windows 10
HomeBank 5.5.2.

What would you would like to see exactly ?

Most users prepare their budget in a spreadsheet program with import/export budget feature.

Thank you for responding.

As You did the effort of programming the budget funtion, I would surely like to try to use it instead of importing spreadsheet data :-)

Selecting the menu Manage and then Budget unfortunately makes it impossible to open other windows in HomeBank. When updateing my budget, I would very much like to be able to open my Budget Account or other accounts in a new window to rewiew actual payments in the past and then type in my best guess for the budget based on the historical data and future predictions.

If it is not possible to alter the program, it is ok. I will have to live with it or take a look at a spreadsheet solution.

By the way, do you want to use:
the budget table view or the old budget ?

Thank you for coming back to this issue - and sorry for the delay.

Personally, I prefer the budget table view which, like a spreadsheet, gives the best overview.
