@Sierra_Chart Engineering Thank you for the update, here is the current status with 2837: This issue is still there, the lag on the chart the mouse is moving (using the hand tool) is still obvious. 1) I have 3 charts in the chart book that are linked in all aspects (including vertical and horizontal position), now when moving one (hand drag drop within the chart) the other moves but the one I'm moving is frozen and only gets updated once I release the mouse click. Obviously that was working fine before, both the chart I'm moving and the linked one moved in tandem.
This issue is still there, the right alignment of the chart control bar still overlaps (or breaks) the Min/Res/Cls buttons/area. 2) When I attach a chart control bar to the right of the chart, the min/res/max buttons disappear, attaching the control bar to the left/bottom/top of the chart is fine.
This issue is resolved in 2837. 3) When minimizing one of the charts and attempting to tile charts vertically/horizontally/grid (from the window menu), even the minimized chart gets aligned with all active charts. Previously, only restored charts are taken into consideration with this action and minimized charts are ignored.
There is no issue with this in 2837, the dynamic background of the buttons with active/inactive is just a good to have, but not something that should be a worry, there are higher priority issues than this. 4) Will there be a way to change the color of the MDI title bar and borders? Also the size and color of the title bar text fonts? The current defaults are hideous.
New points to report: 5) When minimizing to bottom (which works great so far), except that the chart scroll and the control bar should not be on the foreground covering the title bar and the Min/Res/Cls buttons, the title bar and the Min/Res/Cls should be always on the foreground. Example of minimized window attached. Note, this could be related to issue #2.
6) The option "> Window > Arrange Minimized Windows" and its control button has been removed, can you please bring that option back? It is very useful for when the minimized windows are not on the screen or moved around, that options puts them back to their place.
