Missing ZEN with Swing Wallet

Where Did my Missing ZEN Go? - or - What is a Change Address Anyway?

If you sent some ZenCash from a Full Client Wallet (formerly known as the Swing Wallet) you might wonder if you have lost coins. When you send from a T (transparent) address, any remaining ZenCash in that address is also sent to the network and is returned to a "change" wallet

ZenCash has Bitcoin DNA and the behavior of the Full Client Wallet aka Swing Wallet has caused some confusion to users new to cryptocurrency.

ZenCash  is much more like cash than a bank account. When you spend ZenCash, the entirety of the cash in the address is digitally signed and broad cast to the network. The transaction reassigns ownership of one or more coins and returns the change to an address controlled by the wallet.

How wallets handle the change can lead to confusion.

The Full Client Wallet is a Random Address Pool Wallet that uses a pool of randomly generated address to receive payments and change. If change results from a transaction, it is sent to the next available unused address. This is why your address is locked from making any new transactions until the first transactions is confirmed and the change is returned to you.

This is the point at which fear and uncertainty  arise. The user has sent 10 ZEN from an address that had 100. If the user thinks of the transactions as a bank transaction, he thinks that only the 10 ZEN have moved. If the user were to think of it as a cash transaction, handing a 100 dollar bill to a clerk (takes from your left pocket), he would would know that there was an instant in which the full 100 dollars have left his possession. After a moment, the clerk returns your change, which you put it  into a different pocket. You have been given your change. This is the way the ZenCash wallet works.
