Status line: Is there a way to sort the info

Postby arjfca » 18 Sep 2014

Hello

Status line info series seem to be aleatory.

On two charts I got
-Indicator, Instrument, Scale, Indicator
- Instrument,Scale,Indicator,Indicator

I like to have my info in an orderly manner

If you want to change the order of how items are listed in the status line, just right-click on the status line; then you can move the items you want to list into any order you wish by using the "MoveUp" and "Move Down" buttons next to the status line items list.

However, you cannot move the individual studies you have showing up or down through that method :(

I find the only way to do that is to delete studies and then reinsert them in the order I wish them to appear on the status line.

Yes, that's the only way I've found to do it. But you only need to do it once, then save it as a template. Then go to all your charts, right-click and choose "Remove All Studies" and apply the template.

Or apply the template to one chart (or all the charts of a workspace) and then change the instrument and resave the chart/workspace.

I agree that's great for where instruments have the same settings for a study but if they do not have the same setting you then need to go into the individual study and change them as appropriate for that instrument.

It's six of one and half a dozen of the other as to which you get the workspace set up.
