Description

Often, when I change a chart's layout through the Format Window screen, such as the font size or colour of the lines, I want to use the same settings for my already existing charts.

However, currently that is not possible, which means that, if I change the Format Window settings for one chart, I manually need to go over all other existing charts to make the same change. Or if I want to include or exclude something in the Status Line of a chart, each chart needs to be manually changed.

Off course, I could set the new Format Window settings to 'Use as Default', but that would mean that I would have to close all my charts and rebuild my workspaces. That would be even more tedious, and just not a viable option during real-time trading.

Therefore, I suggest to implement two additional options in the Format Window screen:
1) "Apply to current workspace", where the new Format Window settings are applied to all charts in the current workspace.

2) "Apply globally", where the new Format Window settings are applied to all charts in all open workspaces.
