Green Text For Positive Category Values

[asromzek]

Thoughts on having green text for positive category values? See attached example.

As long as I can read the text, I'm okay with it.

I would rather see the 0.00 fields hidden, and any negative amounts clearly red though.

My balances are almost always >0, so I don't necessarily need to differentiate between 0 balances and positive balances.

I was also thinking "$0.00" for all cells that have no value, or hide all the $0.00 values for consistency.

[Joel]

I like the idea of hiding all $0.00 amounts. The only problem would be if there is some type of pop-up for that amount. There may be offsetting transactions that equal 0.00, so you would still want to be able to reach the pop-up.

+1 Green text = under budget.

I like seeing the budget and outgoing fields = $0.00 and would would personally vote to maintain the value and in the current grey/black font.

I will definitely keep the grey $0.00. This is extremely useful for me -- empty means nothing has been budgeted/outflow'd for that category/month.

Grey $0.00 means stuff has been budgeted/outflow'd that month/category combo, but it so happens to zero out.

Helps me understand that there has been activity, but that it's now correctly zeroed.

Agree with the idea of the grey text, but also could see the benefit of possibly having the green text for positive transactions. The only issue I can directly see is readability, which is a major deterrent.
