Calculator

How do you make calculator work?
It seems you first have to enter an amount.
I needed to calculate this: 13,82-4.15.
You need to enter 13,82- for the calculator to open but then you have to re-enter the 13.82

You mean the dropdown calculator on numeric textboxes? It should work pretty similar to the way MS Money works.

You can click on the dropdown arrow to display the dropdown calculator, then click on the buttons to enter values. Or if you press the + or - key when the textbox has focus, it will bring the calculator up and it should pre-populate with the value in the box, and apply the operator you just pressed. When you then enter another value and press = or enter, it should add or subtract the value you just typed from the original value.

E.g.
value: [100]
press - (this brings up the calculator with 100 in the display)
type 30
press enter
the calculator disappears, and you should be left with 70 in the textbox (100 - 30)

Does it not work like this for you?

Not totally. In Microsofft Money i you want to add 2 numbers you enter the first number and when you push on + the calculator opens and you can add the second number.
I you do that in More Money the first number is erased.
But that is not something you have to loose time on. We have to adapt a bit too.

I have a bigger problem with the calculator: I can not read the signs + - = and , or .
Could you make them bigger?
In general I have problems reading the numbers in white on blue background.

Ah. Ok, so it works like this for me, but I've just discovered there's a bug with the control I'm using, and it's not handling commas as decimals properly again, which is causing the issue. I've raised a ticket with them to see if there's a workaround.

Regarding the font size on the buttons, yep, I'll get that increased.
