Hello, Lately, I’ve been experimenting a lot with Sierra Chart settings, and I really miss one essential feature — a Reset to Default button. This feature already works great for the global color and font settings (see screenshot), but it’s missing in nearly every other settings window. Once you start changing various options, it becomes very difficult to remember the original values. The only reliable way to restore the defaults is to reinstall Sierra Chart. It would be really helpful if, as with the global color and text settings, there were a simple Reset to Default button in each settings window (or, better yet, in every section/tab) to restore everything to its defaults. Could you please consider adding this? Thank you. |

To reset everything, you do not need to reinstall Sierra Chart. Refer to the following for how to reset everything: Resetting Sierra Chart to a Default State / Restoring Backup Global Configuration File: Resetting Sierra Chart to a Default State The "Sierra4.config" file, in particular, resets the settings including the graphics settings. The one thing you will have to do after doing this is re-input your service settings in the "Data/Trade Service Settings", but everything else will be back to a "default" state. We want to point out that the reason that option is present for the colors is that there has always been an option to reset the color to the default, so that it carried over from the original window layout to the new layout. We have noted the request to have a "Reset to Default" option for other settings. We can not say when we get to any particular request.
