When I switch between chartbooks I lose the trade window when I go between them. I have to constantly 'open trade window for chart' when I come back to my chartbook. Also, I lose my market depth window as well and have to re-open it.

This seems to be happening in my 2nd and 3rd instance and not in instance 1. Also, it seems it only occurs on chartbooks where I have multiple different trade windows given I have multiple symbols.

We did some testing and we do not see any issue with this. It all functions correctly and perfectly well.

The Trade Window and market depth window, do reopen, when switching between Chartbooks.

Check the Window >> Message Log for any window creation errors.

However, in the case of the Trade Window, that is automatically hidden for nonactive charts, when it is not attached to a chart, and the active chart is maximized.

We should do a remote assistance session with you for you to show us any issues.

I'm experiencing the same issue with the Trade Window disappearing when I switch between chartbooks. Especially noted if I do a "Save All", then switch back to a chartbook that had the Trade Window opened and attached - all trade windows are gone on the other chartbooks. Have to open them again, every time. I am using them as attached. Using v2865.

Reverted back to v2862 and back to normal. The "Attach Trade Window to Chart" setting is respected in v2862, but not v2865.

This must be the problem:

We will look into this.
