Title: How-To Vote For Delegates
Post by: 38PTSWarrior on July 25, 2014, 06:51:58 pm
Hello client 0.2.3 here,

Do I just have to click on the voting button (click to approve) and that's it?

Your votes aren't applied until you make a transaction.  So you can make a transaction to yourself and your vote will be applied for whatever amount was in the transaction.

Do you also know what Random Subset, All and None means and what I should use?

All means it will vote for every delegate you have approved, random subset means it will vote for only 33% of the delegates you have approved (privacy), and None is to vote for no-one (max privacy).

I tried this and am getting an error something like wallet_transfer negative fee   

any ideas?

When you transfer the full amount to yourself, be sure to account for the fee, ie: your full balance -0.1 XTS

I'm not transferring the full amount.  It worked on my first test of .1 BTSX but now fails for any amount it seems.

Edit: Correction, it works for .1 BTSX.  Then it worked for 100.
