Dear Sierra Customer Service,

I am new to this trading software and I am wondering how to deal with the GUI.
Using the Graphics Settings: Fonts and Text Appearance
I chose DOM Quantities/Sizes , changing the type of font and also the size.
Then I pressed Apply and OK but nothing changed.
A snapshot is attached.

On a side note, also I don't understand how to increase the price column width; only quantity columns widths are easy to manipulate.


Thank you.

you either have to use local graphic settings for your chart (see screenshot attached) or you need to set the settings in Global Settings -> Graphic Settings - Global

you can not change the price column width.

Andreas,

In "Global Settings -> Graphic Settings - Global" there is no checkbox. (see screenshot attached).

Pressing the Reset to default button did not help.

Thank you.

If you do not see a change in the font size, then you need to change the font size through the Graphics Setting window specific to the chart/Trading DOM:
Graphics Settings: Fonts and Text Appearance

Chart >> Graphics Settings - Chart

For changing the width of ChartDOM columns, refer to:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Chart/Trade DOM Column Widths and Headers (Trade >> Customize Chart/Trade DOM Columns)

I don't see how the link:
Volume By Price Study: Right Aligning Volume Profiles with Space on Right Side of Chart

could help to manage the Font size in a Trading DOM. Those instructions do not deal with Trading DOM but only Charts. Neither I can't see any screenshot detailing what I need. All this seems confusing.

We apologize. This is a terrible mistake. The wrong link was given. We have corrected that above.

Here is the correct link:
Graphics Settings: Fonts and Text Appearance

You will need to control the font size through:
Chart >> Graphics Settings - Chart >> Fonts

Please note that I open this thread referring to
Graphics Settings: Fonts and Text Appearance

Please re-read the entire thread from post#1, including the screenshots.

I have just set as per "Sample 1234.50". Nothing changed.

All this is quite frustrating. This seems to be managed as a catch22.

We also said:
You will need to control the font size through:
Chart >> Graphics Settings - Chart >> Fonts

And the documentation does explain this as well.

That command is not on the Global Settings menu but on the Chart menu instead.
