Make Alert Manager - Alerts Log - Alert Text Customizable:
Don't know about anyone else but If the alert text could be shortened just to include the info I want to see, it would make the alert manager much more useful. Right now I have to scroll all the way across the screen to get the pertinent info OR leave the whole log to eat up the whole display real estate. For example:

Instead of:
Chart Drawing Alert: EURJPY [M] 1 Min #4, Horizontal Ray #5, High (129.87) Crossing from above (129.90) | Bar date-time: 2018-08-02 14:43:00 | Alert: HL EURJPY german.wav | Muted

Just let me put something like this: EJ,#4,14:43,HL,129.87

OR whatever else I want to put in.

20-100 alerts per hour can make for alot of time wasted parsing.

And Yes, I know I can make the window smaller, and shorten some columns, but that makes it necessary to scroll alot, when in reality I want to be reacting quickly to the alert and trading it.
I also know I can just click on the alert in the alert manager and SC will send me to the offending chart -- which is cool, BUT, then I have to figure out from the chart whether I want to trade it, whereas the alert manager could save me the time of having to go there.
