Yes, an option. I was just about to create a request to be able to link the "Order and Position Tracker" to the charts in a workspace so that I could quickly go back and find symbols that I had positions in and review their charts (the scanner is not a good place to go back and review the charts of my open positions). Maybe the way is to satisfy JoshM's request is to not link the "Order and Position Tracker" to anything but the workspace it was created in. Of course you would want to link the scanner to a workspace and the chart windows in that workspace. Something that just occurred to me is each workspace should have a colour designated to it such that if you select green for workspace1 and detach the scanner or the order and position tracker it should have charts set to green in that workspace. Any other workspaces should use a different colour to link their charts to they do not get effected by that detached window from a different workspace. It sounds lick JoshM wants a higher level of detachment. In this case maybe just having no selected colour in that window should indicate that it is not to pull any charts from any workspace to the front.

The Bug Genie uses an enhanced flavor of the markdown syntax, which makes each newline count. If you want to add a linebreak, add a new line and it will be presented just like you type.

The Bug Genie will automatically add new lines when you add two new lines in your text, whereas one new line is used for formatting as you type. To force a new line, use the
