Allan,
The same request goes out to
you. Please provide a concrete example of what it is the both of you
are trying to accomplish. Did you get my charts that I attached to my
earlier posting?
I provided two seperate windows,
one with a daily and one with a weekly. Both with the same symbol and
each were linked together. You can have these windows tiled vertically
(side by side) or horizontally (one on top of the other).
Dave
Rakesh,you are not alone in wanting to see the weekly and daily
side by side,especially with a linked chart which serves as a global
cursor.I dont know if they specifically understand what we are
requesting as I was referred to the layers and payout tutorial several
times.
The sheets are not fully customizable,and i would leave it at that
