Bug ID: 459773
Summary: Wish list: use absolute values in Charts
Classification: Applications
Product: kmymoney
Version: 5.1.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: file
Assignee: kmymoney-devel@kde.org
Reporter: jvap...@yahoo.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I noticed that if you open a liability account in the ledger, and you hit the
show chart at the top, it will graph in the negative axis.
In the Reports, I also see that some values are negative (Expenses and
Transfers) and although, you have the option to chart the Expenses as
negative(downward) or positive(upward), you cannot do that with the Transfers.
I rather see the values/bar charts all be positive(absolute) values. I believe
most users will understand that Expenses and Transfers out of an Asset account
will reduce the amounts(meaning the values are negative).
It will help make the charts a little more readable in my opinion but offering
the user the choice on how they wish to see their data reported would be best.
The feature is already there for Expense in the reports ( ability to choose how
to graph). The Show Charts button for the ledger will need to be adjusted too.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE show chart button:
1. Open any liability ledger with transactions in it with a balance
2. Click on the show chart button at the top
OBSERVED RESULT
Notice how the chart is showing negative in the Show Chart button
EXPECTED RESULT
Notice how the chart is showing negative in the Show Chart button
STEPS TO REPRODUCE Reports:
1. Open any report that will show liabilities/expenses/transfers
2. Click on the Chart button and
OBSERVED RESULT
You will see that Expense chart downward as do transfers.
EXPECTED RESULT
There should be a way to ask kMyMoney to show the transfers and expenses as
absolute values in the positive quadrant of the chart.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora Gnome 36
KDE Frameworks Version: KDE Frameworks Version 5.98.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Although only a wish list item, I think it will be very helpful when I analyze
my spending.
