I think you want to make the credit card a budget account in the
Account Settings. If you are not doing so already, pay the credit
card with a SPECIAL category of Transfer or Credit Card Payment. Do
not use the EXPENSE category called Credit Card Payment.

Default Spending Catagory

I have trying to make this featue work for me so I can see where my
money goes. (I previously was convinced that money disappeared over
time in the same way water does)

My situation is that I use my credit card for fuel, groceries,
clothes, company reembursable expenses, some houshold bills; basically
for everything besides rent and a few other bills.

Money uses my checking account to catagorize my spending and lumps the
credit card payment into a single catagory so it does not show how my
credit card speding is catagorized. I have each credit card payment
in its account assigned a catagory.

The result I see on the Home page is a big circle with most of it
shown as credit card payment. Is there a way to set up Money to show
credit card spending by catagoyr along wtih checking account by
catagory?
