I am not a pro at this, but I do use AutoHotKey. When I got stuck, I posted on the forums for it and there are some very helpful and knowledgeable folks there who quickly responded. I use AHK to be able to switch back and forth between two chartbooks and have the windows presented in a specific way. Before getting to the AHK part, I did use the capability within SC to set each chart window to a unique name that did not change with the change in contract month. Below is a part of what a 'script' within AHK looks like. It selects main SC window, then opens the desired chartbook. After that, it activates each desired window in a desired sequence to get the overlaying / view of all windows I want. At the end of the script, I go to the desired window, and I want all windows to be at the last / current real time bar, so I use Cntl+End to get to end of chart and I want the cursor/mouse to be in the open space to the right of the last bar, so I move the cursor. PM me if you would like to discuss a little further. i am in North Carolina - east time zone.
