* [AI] feat(budget-report): add toggle to include hidden categories Add a 'Show hidden categories' button that includes hidden expense categories in the Budget Analysis report. This prevents historic data from being misrepresented when a category (e.g. a car fund) is hidden. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]> * [AI] feat(budget-report): replace hidden categories button with icon toggle Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]> * [AI] fix(budget-analysis): use correct package alias in test import Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]> * fix: added in release note * [AI] refactor(budget-analysis): extract isBaseCategory helper and reuse in tests Assisted-by: ClaudeCode:claude-sonnet-4-6 * [AI] feat(budget-report): clarify hidden categories toggle state Replace the ambiguous icon-only toggle with a highlighted active state and explicit click-to-show/hide tooltip text so the current selection is clear. Add aria-pressed for accessibility. Assisted-by: ClaudeCode:claude-opus-4.8 * [AI] feat(budget-report): consolidate chart options into Options dropdown menu Replace the separate chart-type icon toggle, balance/category Select dropdown, and hidden-categories eye icon with a single Options popover (Popover + Menu) matching the pattern used by other reports (Sankey). The menu contains: - Switch to line/bar chart - Show balance (toggle) - Show categories (toggle, replaces balanceOnly) - Show hidden categories (toggle) Also rebases onto upstream/master to incorporate the balanceOnly/Select changes from #8162 before consolidating them. Assisted-by: ClaudeCode:claude-sonnet-4-6 * [AI] fix(budget-report): use static 'Bar chart' toggle in Options menu for i18n Replace the dynamic 'Switch to line/bar chart' string with a static 'Bar chart' label and a boolean toggle (on = bar, off = line), matching the toggle pattern used by other menu items and making the string straightforward to translate. Assisted-by: ClaudeCode:claude-sonnet-4-6 * Enhance budget analysis report with dropdown options Introduced a dropdown to group options and added the ability to show hidden categories in the budget analysis report. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <[email protected]>
