Conrad,
Edit the code from each pane.... do this by right clicking in each pane and
selecting 'edit formula'...
You can specify in AFL exactly how you want something plotted. Likely if you
are using the default drag & drop studies (i.e. price or foreign) you will have
something like this in each...
_SECTION_BEGIN("Price");
SetChartOptions(0,chartShowArrows|chartShowDates);
_N(Title = StrFormat("{{NAME}} - {{INTERVAL}} {{DATE}} Open %g, Hi %g, Lo %g,
Close %g (%.1f%%) Vol " +WriteVal( V, 1.0 ) +" {{VALUES}}", O, H, L, C,
SelectedValue( ROC( C, 1 )) ));
Plot( C, "Close", ParamColor("Color", colorWhite ), styleNoTitle |
ParamStyle("Style") | GetPriceStyle() );
_SECTION_END();
_SECTION_BEGIN("Price");
Ticker = ParamStr("Symbol", Name() );
PlotForeign( Ticker, Ticker, ParamColor("Color", colorCycle ),
ParamStyle("Style") | GetPriceStyle() );
_SECTION_END();
The line GetPriceStyle() causes both panes to be plotted using the style
selected in the view menu...
In a nutshell, and I know you were a gfx developer before, it's all about
AFL... you can do virtually anything you can imagine but your gonna have to
immerse yourself in the AFL manual.
