P.S. You can change the name and description of the wallet in the 'Manage wallet | Edit wallet" option.
Wallets are listed in alphabetic order in the drop down list which is handy if you want to group related wallets together.
Topic: Multiple wallets in MultiBit HD (Read 893 times)
I had a message asking about support for multiple wallets in MultiBit HD.
As it's of general interest I thought I would reply here.
We have designed MultiBit HD for regular non-bitcoin-ey people and have worked hard to keep things simple.
Seeing all the wallets at once in MultiBit was very useful but it puts a lot of numbers on the screen. This can be a bit confusing/ intimidating for new users.
Thus with MultiBit HD you get to see ONE wallet at a time, but can easily switch between wallets.
If you click on 'Exit / Switch' on the sidebar you can choose to 'Switch wallet'.
If you then click 'Switch>' this takes you to the 'Enter password' screen where you can:
+ Plug in any Trezor (you can have multiple ones) and enter the PIN for that wallet
+ Choose in the dropdown list the wallet you want to work with.
+ Create a new wallet using the 'Create' button.
When you switch to a different wallet it will synchronize and show you all the details for that wallet only.
You can see the name of the wallet you are using in the title of the MultiBit HD window.
