Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

I have found that the account names that I wish to use are too long to neatly fit into the sidebar. The account names run into the dollar amounts shown for that account.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

The ideal solution to this issue would be to either create a toggle to enlarge the sidebar or to allow the sidebar to be dragged to the desired width by the user. There is plenty of screen space on a wide-screen monitor to allow room for the sidebar to grow.

100%. I'd be willing to work on this if I ever find time. The ellipsis is annoying.

I have zero coding experience or I would have tackled this before. This one has got some age to it but it still bugs me that I can't adjust the sidebar. I've gotten pretty good at tweaking account names to make them fit.
