Change log
0.6.0.0 - 12/21/2020
-Added option to customize to a regional currency symbol and position (before or after amount) on Quick Pay and Customer Facing display (set in extension Options). Also can now set number of decimal places for currency on Customer Facing Display.
-Due to changes in underlying Vend code that is beyond our control, we removed features that no longer functioned including: Quick Quantity buttons, mouse scroll wheel quantity changes, prompting for a price when an item has a $0.00 price, and printing of receipts/opening drawer immediately following a sale. We know this is disappointing, but we could not find a work around for these changes by Vend.
-Future Support Notice: I originally made this extension for my own store using Vend. Our store is changing over to the iOS app for all our stations, so this may be the final update to this extension except for small errors that I can easily fix as there is no personal incentive for me to continue updating an extension that I don't use (remember I don't work for Vend). If you see features you like or want better support for, contact Vend support directly to encourage them to incorporate them directly into Vend. While their development team is unoffically supportive of this extension, native support or a Vend maintained extension would be the best solution!

0.5.1.8 - 6/3/2020
-Fixed issues of auto drawer not opening at end of sale and positioning of quick pay bar broken by recent Vend updates.

0.5.1.8 - 1/9/2020
-Fixed features that were broken by a recent Vend update.

0.5.1.7
-Updated extension name to Vextend Sell with the addition of the new extension Vextend Office (search Vextend Office in Chrome Web Store).

0.5.1.6
-Fixed Sales History page to be included as part of the extension so interface and hidden links function properly.
