Id just like to mention a small but minor improvement that could be made to this & possibly other menus within Sierra. Were fortunate to be using one of the best trading packages around but as with anything over time small but little improvements could be made & this is a simple one, hopefully?. Having the facility for a short cut menu is really good but my point here is its simply not in alphabetical order. Not a big deal you may say but its a pain scrolling through to find the shortcut your after & then it ideally should appear in alphabetical order in your shortcut menu. A simple but nice little tweak to was is a great charting package.

The order that exist now is according to how the menu items are listed on the main menu.

As soon as we change this, then someone is going to complain about the change.

This is why we are hesitant to make a change.

Yes I appreciate what you say there & you guys are in charge.
To me & were in a group pretty much most of us feel alphabetical order is just common sense,most wouldn't even notice & yes you may have someone complain but we feel it's a tweak worth doing to what is a seriously good charting package.
Many thanks for considering, looking at my suggestion, leave it with you & please let common sense prevail.

Kind regards,

Karl.

I organize my custom chart menus (shortcut, drawing, etc) by function. Please leave that ability in place. I really don't see the benefit of organizing any operating menu in alphabetical order. What trading application or major business application does this?

I do understand the benefit for the menu setup process but that is usually a one time configuration with some occasional adjustments over time. But even here I would make it a sort option and not the default.

One thing that we can do is in the list of menu commands in the Customize Chart Shortcut Menu dialog, we can add titles for each menu so it is clear which menu they belong to.
