Hello, I have a chartbook which consists of 4 charts that are arranged by number. When I tile the windows the first chart appears on the top right corner, the second on the bottom right, the third on the bottom left and the fourth on the top left. However, I want the charts to appear in this order: the first on the top left, the second on the bottom left, the third on the top right and the fourth on the bottom right. Is there a way to configure this? Also, is it possible to detach not just a single chart but an entire chartbook on a seperate window so that I can have a full view of the chartbook? Finally, I would like to make a recommendation. The tabs within each chartbook can be dragged in order to change their position, can you add this feature for chartbooks as well?

The answer to the first question is explained with the Tile Vertically and Tile Horizontally commands in the documentation here:

There is no way to detach a Chartbook. Refer to this page:

I have tried to rearrange the tab order through the option "Window >> Windows and Chartbooks" but the result is always the same, it doesn't change the tiling order. Also, will you consider adding the option of chartbook detachment? It would be very useful especially in the case of tiled charts.

To solve this you will need to update Sierra Chart to the latest release:

Sierra Chart will not support detaching Chartbooks but we are going to support the easy starting of new instances of Sierra Chart through the File menu which will support Data and Trading through the connection of the main instance.
