How to change names of indicator values

Can you please help me understand how to change the names of indicator values when exporting them to a file.
I just want to avoid scenarios were the name is suffixed by ".1" and will therefore manually name them accordingly.

So I would like to avoid this...

'Bottom Band 1', is ok.

But then if I add another duplicate indicator I get ...

'Bottom Band 1.1'

Where do I rename this please?

cheers

You need to change the Short Name setting for a study Subgraph:
Chart Studies: Settings and Inputs Tab >> Short Name

However, you need to wait until the next release before it is supported that the Subgraph Short Name is used when exporting data.

Will the next release fix the issue where if I use a duplicate indicator (i.e. two instances of "Value Area Lines" study) I get blank values for one of the duplicate indicators when exporting them to a file?

When is it scheduled for please?

cheers

This cannot possibly be an issue right now. It makes no sense to us.

I maybe getting confused as it is hard to understand which values are exported with duplicate indicators.

When is the next release scheduled with the Subgraph Short Name used when exporting data?
