First, my request - Add Goto Chart by Name

My Logic and reasons

- It would make using AutHotKey with SC a more dependable, less restrictive setup.

- It can use the field 'Title Bar Name' on AdvSet2 as the GOTO criteria

- I use AutoHotKey. I use the computer for more than just SC, thus I switch off do something or 2, or 3, then I have a script that brings SC back to a known set of charts on top, cursor in right fill space and click to get all charts to sync to current bar. Though it is possible today, it can be done. I currently WinSpy the app icon location, which is always in the same place on the taskbar, then determine each window location in next level popup and click on it. This has issues if I delete and add a new chart to the chartbook. Or I can use chart #. Using Chart # means if I want to use a macro that works on multiple chartbooks, as I create my chartbook, I need to create each chart in a specific sequence so they get the same chart# in all chartbooks. Using names is much easier. It is also has issues when adding / deleting charts.

- Having goto ->TitleBarName<- lets me create a chart window, experiment with it, then use it to replace a different one within the chartbook. Now it is a different # which I can't change, but it could have the correct name with a simple edit to TitleBarName.
