Is it not possible to place orders with attached stop and target from the chart?
I am using an independent Dom in the same chartbook / Not the Attach the Trade window to chart

On another chartbook some times it works and some times don't
The Target and stop loss get attached 'on the chart' when i place them from the Dom, or when i Attach
the 'Trade window to chart' ,,, However when i Right click and select the Buy or Sell Market, only
the buy order displays and not the Target and Stop

I have them enabled on the Dom of course,,,

I have checked instructions and was hoping to find it here, but i couldn't find any

You may not have enabled Use Attached Orders on the right Trade Window. Refer to:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Trade Window Settings Not Applying to Chart or Trading DOM

Also check this setting:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Main/C >> Menu >> Settings >> Hide Pending Attached Orders (chart specific)

Thank you Engineer,
I got familiar with the platform for a couple of years now, however that was a function of which i could never get the exact meaning_
Yes it is always working when i "Attach Trade Window to Chart" _
I place an order (with the attached orders) and it is working, with my 'Market or Limit Order' displaying the Stop/Targets...

I was just wondering if there was another way without attaching the Trade window to the chart as it takes space..
I can make it floating of course and then delete it, so no issue / Thanks again for assistance

The Trade Window definitely does not have to be attached or even visible to use Attached Orders. So there is some other explanation for this issue in your case.

You also can add a Control Bar Button for Use Attached Orders:
Control Bar

Just make sure from the chart you are trading from, that it is enabled.
