This subject has probably been covered before but I can't find it, so has anyone else come across this "problem"..

The Account Balance numerals in the SideBar are very small and almost completely greyed out on my machine making it almost impossible to read.
The text used for the Account Name is perfectly OK..

    Hi Ron

    I checked in with the developer and it was intentional to make the balances in the side bar grey. We will look into making it more readable.

    Sincerely

    I agree that the values are too light to read in the side bar and would like to see them made darker to be more legible.

    Thanks for that Ben,
    Just a little curious why they were made so small and difficult to read originally ??

    The only reason to make them the size they are is to save space. When people have a large number of accounts (especially if the accounts have long names) the side bar can take up quite a bit of screen real estate.

    I did notice that if you put your cursor over the value a pop-up tag displays with the account name and current balance. (build 732.)

    While fixing the balance numbers on the sidebar, perhaps you could re-consider the behavior where if you decrease the width of the sidebar, the balance numbers cover the account names? I would much rather see the account names, or whatever fits, with the balances clipped off or hidden.
