First thing we want you to do is to update to prerelease version 2893. Instructions: Software Download: Fast Update This is very important in order to rule out a particular potential problem in your case! - selecting a chart tab scrolls the entire tab list so that this tab is now at the left-most side of the screen (ie any tabs that were to the left of the active tab are no longer visible). We will check on these.- clicking on a chart whose tab is not visible at the bottom of the screen does not scroll the tab list so the tab becomes visible. - minimising a chart window only reduces the size of the window and still keeps it as the active window on top of others rather than disappearing to the background and making the next chart in the tab list active. I can also still see the crosshair and time/price scales moving with the cursor when I hover over the 'minimised' window. Set this to Minimize to Bottom:General Settings Window: MDI Child Window Minimize Method (List) (Global Settings >> General Settings >> GUI >> Multiple Document Interface (MDI) and Custom Title Bar Settings) We do not see any behavior like this at all. Even when using Minimize in Place. - duplicating a chart does not scroll the tab list to the end so that the new chart's tab is visible, even though its the active chart. We will check on this.- when detaching a chart the chart tab doesn't disappear from the tab list until another chart in the tab list is selected. Similarly when re-attaching a chart, the tab doesn't re-appear on the tab list until another chart is selected. However this behaviour seems to be intermittent We do not see this issue.- Duplicating a chart moves the position of the new window slightly down and to the right (in a cascade effect), requiring re-positioning the new window every time.
This is normal standard behavior. - switching to another chartbook and then back again brings up a different chart window that was not visible before switching This should definitely not be a problem. The previous active window will be activated. There should definitely be no issues with this. We do not observe any problem like this. And we have no other reports of this either.
