I updated my CYD after many months and broke the display (LVGL) . A rollback to 2025.7 fixes it. Any ideas?

I have brokerage account in Actual and I update its value via SimpleFin and reconciliation transactions. I dont want these trx showing up in reports though (like in cash flow). Is it possible to exclude these?

Anyone have a creative solution for curing onions?

Onion and shallot harvest has arrived for me and Im unprepared yet again. I need a method to cure them that is as space efficient as possible. My garlic I take in bundles of 10-15 and with loop of twice, make a hitch knot to cinch them then use a hook and hang on a vertical string; can cure 100+ in only 7ft of string. I tried this same method with onions last year and its too risky, the leaves are too juicy when fresh and can lead to rot.

Another idea is to have a stack of pallets with spacer blocks in between. Should work. Wondering though about any other ideas to consider. Thanks in advance

Friedmans is using Flock cameras in their parking lots (I have just learned). I will no longer be shopping there and am writing to let them know; I urge you to do the same

SR Ave Friedmans camera locations: https://maps.deflock.org/?lat=38.3801&lng=-122.7137&zoom=16.84

Im quite dismayed to learn that Friedmans is using Flock. They join HD and Lowes in that, however, Friedmans being local, there is actually a chance that they will listen to us and end their contract if enough people speak up. Please let them know. Contact links below:

My message I am sending: >Hello, I am dismayed to learn that your Santa Rosa store is using Flock cameras. Flock's private mass surveillance system has proven to be untrustworthy in a variety of ways giving wide spread access to our private whereabouts and info. I have been a loyal customer and account holder of Friedmans choosing your local company over larger national chains, however, I draw a hard line at your use of Flock: I will no longer be a customer of yours so long as you are a customer of Flock. I hope though that this can change. Please end your Flock contract.

.

Hardware stores that are not using Flock:

  • Sebastopol Hardware
  • Cotati Hardware/True Value (Cotati)
  • Mead Clark (SR)
  • Village Pets/True Value (SR, Sebastopol Rd)
  • Ace Hardware (SR, Guerneville Rd)
  • Maselli & Sons (Petaluma)
  • Ideal Hardware (Forestville)
  • True Value (Guerneville)
  • etc

Longshot but anyone have a method to mount 2x 3.5" HDD in OptiPlex 7040 MT (Tower)?

I thought since this is the Tower version and not the SFF that I could do 2x3.5" but nope, all they give you is a 5.25 bay that you can mount a single 3.5 in and then a cage for 2x2.5" (Dell is stingy with drive options) . Maybe someone has a 3D print adapter? (searched but couldnt find one)

I think that bar graphs should be able to have upper bounds set (feature request)

I would like to see a feature where I can manually set the upper bounds for a bar graph so that its useful to compare visually graph to graph. As it stands right now, the bar graphs are auto scaled depending on their max. So two bar graph reports side by side, one with max value $2000 and another with max value $5 may appear visually identical. If I could manually set the upper bound for each graph, they would then be displayed with clear differences (and I would argue as one would expect)

If you agree, please vote for my feature request https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/issues/7938
