[Testing] Finance-1 quick feedback

[Gary C Martin]

Hi Wade,

Just downloaded Finance-1.xo to give it a whirl on the XO (the screen  
shots make it look pretty interesting, and I wanted to see your help  
designs in action). Haven't used it much yet, but a few quick feedback  
items:

1) I was initially confused as the icon Finance-1 is using is for  
Colors-activity.svg :-)
2) Seems to be in $ (dollar currency) only, really will need some way  
of picking a currency (perhaps also a smart initial default based on  
country language setting). The other alternative could be to use a  
generic little symbolic money/currency icon that is non-locale  
specific, to keep your UI nice and simple, little pile of coins and/or  
notes perhaps like your intended activity icon design.
3) The View tab icons (Register, Budget, Chart) should be a radio  
button group so they indicate which view mode is currently set.
4) When in Budget view, setting a Period to something other than Month  
doesn't make sense. The budget graph scale changes, but not the values  
to match. Not sure if you should just make Budget view lock to Month  
only, or if it makes sense scaling values (i.e Month budget = $10, so  
a Year view would show budget at $120).
5) When entering items into the register, I was wanting to use tab to  
get to the different input fields (description -> amount -> category).

Will add Finance to the list of activities I try to spend some testing  
time with – looks like it will be a great Activity addition. :-)
