Or nice would be that the last known conversion rates will be stored and are available even if no internet connection is available. Otherwise the application would be useless offline.

Manual adding and editing... Hmm... I have to look into it. It might be feasible. Is there any specific currency you had in mind?
Yeah, the sorting is really strange now that I look at it. I just copied those directly from ECB in the same order. But the order doesn't make any sense. I'll try to fix that in the next release.
- KHR (Cambodian Riel)
- LAK (Laos Kip)
- VND (Vietnam Dong)
I guess the ability to add and edit your own currency rate would be handy if you are in a country with limited or no internet available (for example ^^^^^) and couldn't get online to get the exchange rate(s).
I do like how your application gets the exchange rates online

I just uploaded to Extras-devel a new version (3.1) with the ability to add and edit currencies. I had to do some major changes to my code, in order to make it work. I hope the result is worth it. If nothing else, I did learn many new things of Qt.

Sasler, I've downloaded the latest version and its great! The currencies (including new ones that I've added manually) are now sorted nicely and the scrolling through of currencies only happens vertically without side scrolling. (See people like me do appreciate and notice your work).
I've noticed that when you add a new currency you have to do it via the Euro to other currency (which isn't a problem at all and only took a couple of seconds for me to figure out). Also, the date that it shows when you start it is the last exchange rate update I am assuming.
I don't know what else to ask for in such an application.
You've done an awesome job!
Thanks!!!!!
