[Kmymoney] Inputting data in Transaction Input Form

Hello All

Maybe this is wishlist thinking or maybe something can be done?

There are two separate conditions referred to below.

1. When inputting data manually (Autofill on - last button - for most
common useage etc)

Initially starting a New Transaction, the payee is autofilled and
highlighted with the last transaction entered.

Starting to type a different payee name does not always / necessarily
autofill a previous or recent payee name starting with those
characters.

Sometimes yes , sometimes no.

Eventually a list may appear, correct including the characters
entered, but not in the order expected as per the characters entered.

Even if it does enter the new payee correctly as anticipated it may
not enter the category most commonly used for that payee.

Again sometimes yes mostly no.

A thought just occurs - most of the current data has been loaded from
another source and not input manually into KMM.

Does KMM "learn" from the manual input rather than pre loaded data? 

2. When tabbing between fields, if there is no entry in the
activated field, the relevant  "input field box" is highlighted, but
only very faintly around the outside and is very difficult to identify
if at all.

Sometimes I have to go around the tab circuit a number of times to
find the active input box.

I can live with the above but thought it worth mentioning in case I
have missed some setting.

Otherwise it is working like a dream
