Hi Support, I continue to see a couple minor issues with v2858. I am using Linux/Wine v10 and openGL

1) on one chart, show title bar has no effect of turning on and off the title bar. Odd because it works on all other charts...just one does not work
2) I have my trade menu menu attached to the right on my main trading chart. If I exit SC and reenter, the trade menu stays attached as expected however it has been shifted down leaving a gap. Unattaching and reattaching fixes the positioning issue.

Provide separate Chartbooks containing each of these charts. So we can test them.

Here is a chart I tried to put together (my setup has many charts so this is a small subset) At first the title would show and not be affected by toggling on and off...now of course it works. Also the attach to right issue seems to be related to the title toggle. the gap seems to be the title height.

Now the titles are working on the main setup...there seemed to be a selection in the title that changed as I was trying different ways to get it working....it was an icon with 2 diagonal dots...I clicked it and the chart resized properly... now it is min/max or close as expected and titles toggle correctly.

The attach trade window to chart is still an issue and completely repeatable.

Also, I now see how to reproduce the behavior of the title bar not turning on and off. It happens when the window is in the minimized state and then resized by dragging the window edge bigger. This is likely intended behavior but was a bit confusing initially as I did not know the resized window was in a minimized state. The diagonal dot icon was the clue indicating the chart was in a minimized state.

To reproduce the behavior
1) Minimize a chart. Now you see the two diagonal dot icon.
2) Once minimized, the chart title will not toggle on or off. Resizing the window by dragging the graph edge when in the minimized state and you will see the chart header and it will not toggle off.

To get chart title toggling working
1) In the minimized state, the two diagonal dot icon appears, click it and the minimize, maximize and close icons appear as expected
2) Now the chart title will toggle on or off

Background
This setup came about because I have several charts used as reference charts. In the past they were simply minimized and would not overlap or show when minimized. I now hide them using the hide window toggle from the menu and they do not show or overlap. Sometimes I want to see the hidden charts so I use the windows and chartbooks menu to activate them. Then hide them when done so they do not show.

This works well... just took time to figure out the workflow.
