Post From: New instances - Screen Images and Chartbooks

Hi, I have 2 Copies of SC installed and on Copy 2, I use 3 instances (so I can see multiple chartbooks across multiple screens during trading).

I tried "Edit > Screen Images > Save Main Window to File" function to save the screen image however, the image turned up in the Copy 1 "Images" folder and there was nothing in it (file is 0 KB). I tried "Screen Images > Save Chart to File" and this worked but again the location was in Copy 1 "Images" folder instead of Copy 2.

Secondly, when using a New Instance, is it possible to open chartbooks from the main SC "Data" folder and have them remain there, rather than being copied into the New Instance "Data" folder? I use New Instances to view multiple Workbooks during trading but outside that I only need the Main instance running and still want to access the chartbooks. How to view/share Chartbooks across instances without creating multiple copies?
