Post From: Flatten using Margin

Hi. I'm with Dorman and am using the CQG Web API feed. I notice that when I hit 'flatten' on the trade window to close out a position it requires additional margin to do so if I have existing working orders like a target and stop. So if I don't have the required extra margin, the first click cancels any working orders and then I have to click it again to flatten the position. Therefore I have to hit the flatten button twice which is not ideal. I know if I right click on the chart there is an option to 'flatten and cancel'.

Will 'flatten and cancel' take care of everything in one click? Is there a button that I can hit that will flatten and cancel so that I don't have to right click, click twice, etc? Is there a way to add 'flatten and cancel' to a control bar or maybe a keyboard shortcut? Please advise. Thanks.
