Hello Angel,

Good initiative. This look= s good. If I understand, the dropdown menu is for the whole application, so= it make sense to have it in a common part of the layout.

A slight optimisation would be to write the unit in the transaction ta= ble header too (since we read from top to bottom). This would give somethin= g like "Amount (mBTC)". That way, the user doesn't have to th= ink twice about the unit of his values.


Hope it helps,

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/3862

Whatever the side of the debate you're on, wether it should be BTC = or mBTC, or other, regular users will probably take too long to find a way = to change the current unit of display, and if the unit of display were ever= changed to something other than BTC, the current transaction tables"A= mount" column don't mention anywhere what Unit of Display is being= used.

So last night I started playing with the idea of having a status bar co= mponent that would:
1. Show you what is the current unit of displ= ay at all times.
2. Let you change the unit of display easily.
Here's how it looks (see attachment), just wanted to get feedback, = if this is something you also consider valuable in terms of user experience= , or maybe you don't want to allow any more controls on the status bar = (because then people will want to add more and more)

Just want to get some feedback before I continue workin= g on this to polish it and submit a pull request.


Cheers.
