Fix Chart-Shift In Charts

Postby piranhaxp » 28 Jul 2013

Is there any chance from the developer side to make a "fix chart-shift" besides the normal chart-shift so we are able to show up text, plots or something else without being "squeezed" by moves in the chart-shift. A specific area left from the price scale should have a fix amount of shift.

Normal Chart Shift :

Charts with same chart-shift, squeezed but text right next to the last chart is fixed

and

This would be a nice feature to plot (text, different symbols, etc etc.) something there which can be seen no matter what the chart is looking like.

if you shift by percentage (%), as shown in your set up window above, the white space should be constant.

If you "click" on the % , it changes to a fixed distance from the right..(% or fixed distance is your choice)

Nope, %-Button isn't a solution. If you have a fixed amount of dates loaded and are crushing the chart, the last bar is moving to the left and the place between the last bar and the price scale is still widening and so the "plottings" are moving and "crushing" at some point as well.

That's not my idea and wish. A specific amount of "place" must be able to set as allocated for EASY plotting.
