YNAB Web Interface Question
In the recent post, https://www.youneedabudget.com/see-your-recent-money-moves/
I saw the interface with the goals with a progress bar. How do you set this up?
-
On the same line as money moves at the top of your budget, keep going to the right for the two boxes. One is two blue lines and one has multiple lines. Click on the multiple line box. It will show your progress bars. Click the two bars to turn them off.
-
Navy Blue Pegasus Hello, I don't have those boxes. I do have the toolkit. Could that make a difference?
-
Navy Blue Pegasus I don't have those boxes. I don't have the toolkit extension installed.
-
Cyan Yeti It's another phased rollout (like the money moves). Some folks get it sooner than others.
-
Vibrant Thanks for the info! I'll keep my eyes peeled.
-
Cyan Yeti If I could donate mine to you, I would. I leave mine turned off. Way too much clutter, especially with some of the Toolkit's goal column, which I find more valuable, and I think the Toolkit's progress bars are better designed (even though I don't use those, either.)
-
JoeDid The layout also looks terrible if use the Toolkit to change the line height of the rows.
-
JoeDid Agreed. I don't use it. It doesn't do anything for me. But I don't use the Toolkit's either. I don't have the need since I'm a month ahead.

JoeDid Agree 100%

(I can’t wait to see what it looks like for me 😃)
When it is released to everyone, it shows in the Release Notes
https://www.youneedabudget.com/release-notes/
If not yet released, it usually shows in ‘Up Next”:

...that is where they (both) are at the moment (@30 Mar 2021)..extracts follows (for your convenience).....
‘In Progress’ Progress Bars
We’ve been working on a brand new data visualization for each of your budget categories: a progress bar that shows you everything from how close you are to reaching your goals to tracking how much you’ve spent relative to how much you have available in each category. This feature will be web only at first, but progress bars are coming to the mobile apps soon, too!
‘In Progress’ Money Moves
Moving money is the secret sauce of YNAB and core to Rule Three: Roll With The Punches. We want to make it easier to learn from those moves and communicate better with a partner about those moves. You are now able to see a history of movements between categories on the web app (learn more here), and coming soon to iOS and Android!

This should be coming to your budget VERY soon now. I'll be posting an announcement today!

Just found out (from comments in a YouTube video) that the new feature 'progress bars' are controlled by web version 'themes'.
Go to: Settings (top left) click on you budget name>select Display options>Toggle on the "progress bar" view>Refresh.
It may not be compatible with some of the toolkit for YNAB (chrome extension) features. That may need a fiddle or to be turned off until rectified. -
