Envelope Views

Main window envelope view section

Envelope views allow you to tailor the way envelopes are displayed on the main window. An "All Envelopes" view is automaticaly created by Budget an can not be modified. You may create as many additional views as needed. To create an additional view select an existing view and then click the "Plus" (+) button on the main window. A new view is created with the same settings as the original view you selected. To modify the view click the "Settings" button. In table on the left of the drawer check the envelopes you want to see in that view.

Envelope views a helpful in showing envelope in different configurations. For examlple your main view may have group envelopes. You can create and configure an "Expanded View" where all your group envelopes show as individual envelopes on the main window. Another use would be to hide envelope you no longer use.

Note:All envelopes are shown in the settings table even if they are unassociated with the currently selected account. In that case you will not be able to configure the envelope.

See the section Associated Envelopes to configure which envelopes are part of an account.
