Any chance you might add Hide Values Scale & Hide Time Scale to the Customize Keyboard Shortcuts options? In a case where those are set to hidden, being able to toggle them on/off to make quick adjustments to the chart scale would be WAY more efficient with a shortcut than the current method which requires 9 steps.

1. Open Chart Settings
2. Click Advanced Settings tab
3. Check/Uncheck Hide Values Scale and/or Hide Time Scale
4. Save Settings
5. Make the desired adjustments to the chart scale
6. Open Chart Settings
7. Click Advanced Settings tab
8. Revert checkboxes to original settings for Hide Values Scale and/or Hide Time Scale
9. Save Settings

Update to the latest version. Keyboard Shortcuts and Control Bar buttons have been added for these.

It is only available in the Control Bar options, not as a Keyboard Shortcut. Under the Control Bar selections, they are within the section for "Chart - General". They are just below "Logarithmic Scaling" and above "Bid Ask Line".

Ok thanks for the clarification.

Is there a keyboard shortcut or an assignable control bar button function to grow/shrink the vertical scale of the chart?
I only need the price scale on all but one chart for re-sizing quickly when changing symbols etc.

Is a keyboard shortcut for either of these functions possible as a new feature? When working from a laptop hide/unhide price scale is a constant action due to the small screen.

Thanks

There is not an option for changing the size of the vertical scale.

These have been noted as Feature Requests, we just can't say when we would get to any particular request.
