> Not sure if this is just new in 5.2.11, but the handling of zero price products has changed. This is a bug as you can no longer set a zero priced product to `1.00` price when the amount is entered on the number pad.

It will work fine on next update. Also added a new feature to add multiple zero priced products by using `X` separator.

For these functions we don’t have equivalent graphql mutations because SambaPOS actions are already available to graphql by using notifyEvent mutation. I was thinking there was a tutorial but seems like we don’t have any. I’ll try to show a small example. I’ll be really glad if someone prepares a tutorial for it.

Regarding this request:

> [@Make ticket row 1 and 2 buttons different height](https://forum.sambapos.com/t/make-ticket-row-1-and-2-buttons-different-height/18061):
>
> @emre is there anyway you can add a setting to change the height of these buttons under the ticket? maybe default to the full height of row 1 and 2 combined if only 1 row of buttons exists, but ideally a way to control the height so i can make them bigger?

I added `<height x>content<height>` tags to format individual button heights.

For example I can change settle button Header.

Forgot to mention latest update contains “Auto Message Server Discovery” feature. If you don’t enter a message server name in local setting SambaPOS will try to find message server ip in the network. You can leave message server name empty and test if it can connect to message server fine or not on restart. This is experimental for now. Only tries to discover message server on first run. I’ll improve this feature for all products that needs to know message server ip to operate.

PS: This feature works if message server is configured to run with `+` sign.

I decided to use `*5,1,5,10,20,50,100` for default. I don’t want to surprise people who are familiar with the SambaPOS Screen. I also slightly changed defaults. When no currency symbol is configured it will display amounts by using system currency symbol. To disable currency symbols it needs to be configured as “\*5,1,5,10,20,50,100:{0}”.

So this is how these buttons will appear on default install.

BTW Thank you very much for the payment screen improvements. I will be trying them live at my food truck tommorow. Big thing I am waiting on atm is the Gloriafood qty issue and CC processing then I can go live like a forum hermit and just troll newbies.

We’re waiting for the legal stuff. We expect to release 3 different integrations on next months.

What is qty issue?

Current version of Gloriafood official integration file… aka one he gave me in private message and is still not official… if an order with multiple qty comes in… like 2xBBQ Nacho it records it just fine in Sambain but on SambaPOS when it builds ticket it always just puts 1 qty of the item making entire order total wrong and sending wrong kitchen print too caused me a big headache other day.

I want to clarify I am using a newer version of the integration that I dont think is really released yet. He fixed a few issues I gave him.

OK. I see. If it is something related with Graphql @VehbiEmiroglu will let me know so I’ll fix that asap.

The version I am using is a standalone program vs using the entity screen like old one did. It is MUCH better the only issue is that qty issue and I gave him some feature updates I would like that I think he is working on.

Yes Vehbi allocated a long timespan for Gloria Food updates in our monthly plan. We’ll fix all issues.

If this works on the left column ticket buttons it will be really good - few times I’ve wanted to change height of them but wasn’t any method.

I created an automated test to see if displaying ticket amounts on entity buttons slows down user flow or not. I created about 1000 tickets and appears to work fine.

PS: Video speed is not increased. I increased macro recorder’s speed to simulate fast clicks.

What software did you use for the automated test?

I’d be interested to try similar tests on tablets and POS terminals to get an idea for any lags / slowness that could happen in general use.
