Customizable sorting of currencies in accounts list #461

Open mtotschnig opened 6 years ago

mtotschnig commented 6 years ago

User reports that she would like her home currency YEN be more easy to access. Currently it is sorted towards the end of the list of currencies. Two possible solutions: 1) The home currency is sorted first, then the other currencies stay in alphabetical order. 2) The option selected by the user for sorting accounts, is also applied to currencies, i.e alphabetical, last usage, count of usages (this could be interpreted as number of accounts that use the currency) or custom (currencies can moved up and down like accounts). The first option would be easy to implement, the second one needs more work.

Hello, you replied to me by e-mail and I write you back here. 2 is much better, option for sorting by last usage, count of usages sounds great. (I have no idea anyone like alphabetical sorting though..) As I go to travel sometimes, and use local currency at that time. And I also have some local bank accounts in 4 countries, check by internet too. But also sounds so great if I can sort by custom by myself, if someone use mulch currency they have their favorite sorting I think. Home currency comes first is not enough for me.. Please think about it for someone like traveling/holding some currency.

count of usages (this could be interpreted as number of accounts that use the currency)

This sounds useful. Then I imagine currencies that are not used are still displayed alphabetically (with maybe some kind of seperator line in dropdown menus)

@suemari Reading the comment by @keunes, I am wondering if I misunderstood your suggestion: Because I was thinking about the Totals section in the accounts list. Is this also what you had in mind, or are you referring (as I think @keunes does) to the Currency dropdown on the Account edit screen where you select the currency for an account?
