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
