SC Team - By adding few of the Chart DOM columns, I could extend the chart to the right side of price scale.

screencast.com/t/PzO1hs8P

Have couple of questions related to this:

- Is it possible to adjust the width of each column?

- Is it possible to extend the same space to the right side of the Chart DOM without actually adding Chart DOM columns similar to "lock fill space" but on the right side of the price scale? The purpose of this is to write own data using GDI calls in this space.

Alternately - If you could allow a "blank" column to be added to the Chart DOM - it should be possible to extend the window to the right side.

Thanks

You can only control the minimum width of the buy and sell trade columns.

The other ones cannot be adjusted.

SC Team - If it is not difficult to implement - would it be possible to add the blank space to the right side of the chart DOM?

Just similar to adding the Chart DOM columns, but blank ones. Would like to use the GDI calls to populate some custom data here.

Thanks

We will see about adding a blank space column.

No, we cannot do that. We will not remember.

ok - I would keep checking every version to see if this is added and would remind in about a month/2 months from now.

Thanks

SC Team - Just wanted to check if you could implement this.

As per the image - Wanted to make a dashboard like on the right side of the chart as in current state (on the main price scale - there are likely to be overlapping issues etc - which I am trying to avoid by drawing on the right side).

Thanks in advance.

SC Team - Wondering if you could implement this some time soon if easy enough to implement.

Just space on right side of price scale.

thanks

ok... thanks..

Can you atleast provide an option to lock the fill space on right side - which is "independent of bar space / bar type / bar period?" You currently already do that with price scale width - irrespective of the bar type/period/space - the "width" of the price scale doesn't change. But it's very very difficult to get the same result with fill space.

If there are any suggestions on this, please let me know.

Basically a fixed width - in terms of "pixels" - 3 * priceScaleWidth and has to be stable and doesn't shrink/change due to the bar type/period.

Thanks

We are not in a position to take an advanced suggestion like this and we do not expect to be able to for at least 2 years from now.

And once again we have to be very clear. You are overwhelming us with requests. There is no way we can keep up with these and we cannot respond to them.

Letting you know, as we indicated previously, this is being considered:
If you could allow a "blank" column to be added to the Chart DOM - it should be possible to extend the window to the right side.

If it is added, it would be sometime in the next six months.

- Is it possible to adjust the width of each column?
This capability is coming sometime in the next six months.

We have no further information or updates that will be provided here.

SC Team - Wanted to check on whether you had a chance to work on this - include blank column to the right side of the chart.

Thanks

No. We have no idea when this will be done. It could take another year.

You cannot rely on us for this.

SC Team - It's understandable if you don't want to do it.

Honestly though - it's really puzzling - what the technical difficulties with adding a blank space to right side of the chart. You already have the option of including necessary DOM columns to the right side of chart - which you are populating. It would be just like that but a blank column. You already have a frame work for this and don't understand the reason you don't want to take it up.

thanks

We have not yet had time.

And it does not help to keep asking.
