Wallet with multiple keys

[j4r3kb]

I have a wallet running not problems fully synced. Just added another set of keys with chia keys add.

Now the chia wallet show for the first key shows wallet synced, but the same for the new key is not synced and at height 0 and is not picking up blocks for several minutes.

Do we have to sync each key in a wallet separately? Is it even doable on the same instance or I have to run it on it's own instance as a default key just to send a transaction over the network?

Each key needs to be synced separately. Apparently, it'd take your local node and sync, but I can't seem to find the FAQ on Wiki.

The wallet which will send/receive transaction will always need to be synced first.

Once light wallets are in place, I think it would be better.
