Receive currency max amount too low! - is upper limit necessary? #926

When someone want to generate a receive qr code and payment link, there is an arbitrary limit on the number the UI accepts!
1,000 for XMR and 100,000 for all other currencies.
It makes the receive screen very limited for currencies, which worth is low.

For example if I want to receive 120,000 HUF (which is less then 2 XMR!) the UI results in an Error: "Max. 100,000"
This results that I can not generate a QR code or payment link for more than 1.8 XMR, if I want to set the amount in HUF!

If it is possible, please change in the file
xmrwallet-master\app\src\main\java\com\m2049r\xmrwallet\widget\ExchangeView.java:255
and raise the MAX_AMOUNT_NOTXMR to at least 1,000,000,000,000 and the MAX_AMOUNT_XMR to 18,000,000 , - or remove the upper limit check altogether from line 261-267, so it will be usable with low value currencies too.

Inflation can happen anytime, and Monero is about freedom. Why set a limit on qr code generation? :)

If it is not possible, please write to me, what can i do to make it work with larger amounts of low value currencies.

Thank you!

Thank you for pointing this out. It's pretty new that we have ARS (for example) back in the wallet, and a max amount of $100000 ARS is 0.613 XMR. Useful for everyday shopping but for example you can easily go above that on a family supermarket purchase.

Thank you for the quick response anhdres.
What is ARS stands for exactly?
Do you know what purpose the upper limit is for at the qr code generation?

ARS is Argentinean pesos. I don't know the reason behind the limit, I'm sure @m2049r can say.
