Post From: Issue with horizontal bar/zone holding the chart tabs in new version of SC

yes it consistent for me. well, 2 issues are consistently interchangeable. 1) sometimes I get to launch with MDI tabs over multiple rows, sometimes I don't get that and its stuck on 1 row despite "Support for multiple rows for MDI tabs" being set to yes. I am trying to figure out what the pattern is for launch with or without multiple MDI tab rows. 2) when I do launch with multiple MDI tab rows each chartbook will have whatever the chartbook with the highest rows has. with my setup that was 6 rows. I have mitigated that by moving that large 6-row chartbook to a 2nd instance. all my other chartbooks are max 2 rows for MDI tabs. However, each chartbook now has 2 rows for MDI tabs even if it only needs 1. It seems to be not resetting for each chartbook. Not a big deal for me now as it sticks on max 2 rows which is not noticeable. I will try to figure out a pattern between a launch with multiple row MDI tabs versus only 1 row, and report back.

Another issue, or maybe its now a feature, is the time it takes to switch chartbooks. If the chartbook is large, i.e. many charts, SC seems to cycle through each chart/window and it maybe deactivates it (?) before moving to the next chartbook. Switching between small chartbooks it's barely noticeable. Switching away from a large chartbook its very noticeable and causes a big pause/delay. I can just about live with it but it is mildly annoying and not as seamless as it was to switch away-from/to large chartbooks as it was on the previous version.

I realise I am a fairly uncommon user of SC with large chartbooks of many charts, but if that switch-speed in anyway could be improved for large chartbooks that would be good.

thanks. overall I do like the new chart windows, once everything is loaded they are rapid and responsive!
