Hi,

I did know about the second point you made. It seems something else was
corrupted, the program was most likely not really to blame for that.

 

However, I had two windows opened, and it did not ask me about the window I
accidentally closed. That’s the only thing I think should be fixed, really.

 

The first point you make is interesting. Does the program really count my 8
specially configured sheets as a Default Chart when I can’t recall ever
designating the charts as such? Seems a bit strange to me, but if it does,
that’s great.

 

Regards,

Jan

Hello,

 

1. It asks already if you want to close last window.

 By the way - you can easily re-open the window if you have closed it, using
File->New->Default Chart.

 

2. It accepts but note that database stores QUOTES, not windows. Window
setups are stored in LAYOUT files and broker.newcharts, so 

the entire backup is the backup of entire AmiBroker directory together with
ALL subfolders.


Best regards,

Subject: [amibroker] Extremely tired of this.

 

Hi Tomas and everyone else.

 

I have a severe problem with Amibroker, and I am now starting to resent this
program that I have very much enjoyed working with.

 

Here’s the problem:

1.      I accidentally closed a window the other day. I used all eight tabs,
many charts filled with comments and Elliott Wave markings and so on. 100’s
of charts. Literally. Amibroker simply must ask if you really want to close
the window in the future. It doesn’t now, and that can simply not continue
to be the case in the next version. 
2.      What is even more frustrating is that the program simply no longer
accepts the backup of the entire database and the broker workspaces, which
included the windows. It reads them from the other hard drive, yes. But then
it doesn’t actually save them to the hard drive I work from. So, I spent
hours yesterday marking up my charts again, and now the backup doesn’t work,
nothing works, and that work was wasted. 

 

Please implement these changes in the next version. Maybe it is already
there, but I have searched the entire Preferences section and I cannot find
it there. I cannot in proper terms express how much work in terms of time
and emotion that went into the now lost charts, and how negative I feel
about this. I write analysis for other people and institutions, not just for
myself, and now I am put out of business for a minimum of 14 days, a lot
more time before even half the charts are restored. Of course, half of it is
my fault, since I decided to start a new section of charts, which overwrote
the old copy. Now, since not even the new work is useable anymore, what does
it matter…

 

Regards,

Jan Malmberg
