Don't know if this would work for you, but I use AutoHotKey. One use I do is to bring most, but not all windows to be selected / open in a specific sequence, so the screen(s) end up displaying the way I want. One thing I do within SierraChart is to name each of my charts, so it is easier to "find" them within AutoHotKey. Below is a section of the AHK code to show what is involved. (At least when you code it as I did. I'm self taught C++ & AHK scripting. I presume there are other ways as well.)
I use Win Alt S key combo to achieve this.
