Shortcut Folder - Import Symbols File to Watchlist

Some feedback for Sierra Charts. For some time now I have always wondered why it is not possible for Sierra charts, when importing a Symbols File to watchlist, when I browse to a folder to locate the file, why a 'Shortcut' does not get shown in the File Chooser Dialogue. All of my watchlists are in one place (on my Google Drive) so I can import watchlists regardless of which of my machines I am on. Every time I try to browse to the selected folder, although there is a Shortcut item in my Windows File Structure, it never shows within the Sierra Charts 'Browse For Folder' File Dialogue. It would be much better if it showed the Shortcut items as well. It does take a while when I am importing several Watchlists to keep traversing through all of the file structure if I am honest. Hopefully this feedback can be taken well. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2018-06-26 06:41:32

The Browse For Folder dialog that you are referring to is from the Windows operating system. So this is not something we can help with. Unless the previous folder path is saved. But generally we avoid doing that. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users. Try to keep your questions brief and to the point.

That's a real pitty. It is extremely painful to use to be honest and is bad for the user when it could be much easier than it is currently. Appreciate this maybe outside of your control in that case I didn't realise this was Windows Open File Dialogue chooser. But, normal Windows traversal behaviour does allow for Shortcut visibility though so not sure why this would be the case in this instance. Thanks anyway. |

In the next release, the prior folder used when using Import from the Associated Symbol List for a chart, will get used again so you do not have to keep changing it.
