Doesn't the tooltip show up for you (see attachment)?
These are dividend transactions in an Investment account. I just tried
again, and in master branch, in the Investment account, if I select two
dividend transactions and then try to edit, nothing happens, In the
brokerage account, I do see that tooltip. I can see these are actually
split transactions (one for the security, one for the category, and one
for the brokerage account) so I'll have to think about whether editing
the category makes sense, and will probably file a low-priority
wishlist. It should be possible, since there is only one split for a
category.
