I'm facing the same problem. My solution (or, better: "workaround") is to chart not only income vs expenses over time, but also (in a separate chart) income vs "expenses+mortgage", where "mortgage" is the amount of debt I pay off every month for the house mortgage. Of course you can replace "chart" with "balance" or whatever other query you're doing to obtain similar results in a different context. IIRC the proper way to go about that in terms of tool support would be to tag the accounts that are "cash-ish" for you and that you want to see in these kind of reports. For me those would be Income:* Expenses:* and Liabilities:Mortgage:*. On top of that you can add some easy-to-activate knob that will pre-select those accounts. Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli .
