Currently, we have the option to save screenshots of the chart window and main window to a file. We can also save a screenshot of the chart window to the clipboard using the Copy Chart Image function. However, we cannot save a screenshot of the main window to the clipboard. The Copy Main Window Image function is missing. I often take screenshots of the entire platform (using external software) and post them to my Discord. However, this requires an extra step, which I find annoying. Could we therefore add a function to copy a screenshot of the main window to the clipboard? Thank you. |

Is that really necessary? Win+Shift+S brings up the Snipping Tool. You can set it to always copy a window. Assuming SC is already in focus, a final click copies the entire Main window to the clipboard. PS: You can also hit the PrtSc (Print Screen) button to bring up the Snipping Tool. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/use-snipping-tool-to-capture-screenshots-00246869-1843-655f-f220-97299b865f6b |

In my opinion, it is necessary. Currently, I can take a screenshot of the chart window by simply clicking a button in the control bar or pressing a keyboard shortcut. It is very quick and convenient. Your suggestion is no different from what I'm doing now. It requires extra steps. However, thank you for the tip 😉 |

We have noted this as a Feature Request. We can not say when we would be able to get to any particular request. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
