chart drawing, right margin

Hello,

1) Is there a way to set a fixed (empty) margin on the right side of a chart? Because the bars are drawing right against the Y Axis. I need to have some visual space between the bar being drawn and the axis. It appears that scroll bar will move the margin, but this is not a standard windows behavior, and it is not "sticky", it does not stay. I move around a lot on the chart and the scroll bar is not a practical solution for me

2)I would like to have the draw tool not stay in draw mode, but return to a chose base state (pointer or crosshair) after ONE drawing. I usually only want to draw one figure at a time, not a sequence. Is there a way to do this?

I am coming from another charting package. Of course each will have its strong points...I need to find ways to do things like this in Sierra Chart.

Thanks

Thanks.

By the way, it would be great to have the documentation in a download PDF...probably would be easier to find. Of course there are reasons not to do this.

I quite like your software. Wish I didn't have so much code already in C#.
