Does anyone else find it odd to enter new transactions at top of the page rather than at the bottom? I prefer to have transactions sorted with oldest at the top and newest at the bottom and the "add new transaction" dialog box under that. Would it be possible to have a user option to select if the new transaction dialog box is at the top or bottom?

Me too.
Me three.
Interesting, I'm the opposite. I prefer the new transactions at the top as that's how they show on my online discover manifest and Capital One 360 account.
I'm also opposite... I like it at the top close to all of the other controls and buttons in financier.
I always found at the bottom to be annoying personally.
It felt natural on the bottom in YNAB4. It took some adjusting when moving to nYNAB, but now I sort of prefer it. I would lean toward leaving at the top since new transactions are near the account data, and my eyes don't have to jump around the screen as much. Although, it would be interesting to see what it would look like mocked up on the bottom in Financier.

I think that's my problem. I never gave nYNAB much of a drive after I realized I didn't like it.
Now that I've looked at this new transactions at the top thing through a new lens it's kinda growing on me.
Good thing y'all are around. :)
Can you not change the sort to be ascending or descending so that the user has the option?
My original point was to have the a "user selectable option" for the new transaction entries to be on the top or bottom. I agree that not everyone likes it the same way. It maybe a big pain to code.

You can, but it doesn't stick. I much prefer the the new transactions on the bottom and it seems I have to hit the date sort button twice to get it to sort that way. I don't know tell what order it is sorted into when I hit it the first time. Maybe order of entry?
I too would like an option for the sort order to "stick"
It's in the pipeline.

I prefer to have the most recent information at the top of the list, so I really like having the transaction entry at the top. I like the idea of making it user preference, so we can all set it how we like it.
