Is there a way to have these act as they did in previous versions? When I click on a new button I want the previous one to turn off.

Can someone reply please? I use these buttons for trading commands and now the process is completely jacked up. How to I make these function like the previous versions? Thanks.

I appreciate it but it looks like if I want to have them work the old way then I have to learn how to program, write code, etc. Use the code in my custom study function??? What does that even mean? I don't want this to work with a particular custom study I just want it to act how it always has all of the time. Actually I don't really want to know what it means, can't there just simply be a setting to have or not have multiple buttons active at the same time? Maybe in global settings or something? Something that I can just click on? Thank you for making this an option but I don't know what to do with your instructions. I am however pretty good at clicking on a binary setting that is either 'on' or 'off'. Please help.

I went to the link and see that the following code is listed: if (sc.MenuEventID >= ACS_BUTTON_1 && sc.MenuEventID <= ACS_BUTTON_150) { sc.SetCustomStudyControlBarButtonEnable(sc.PriorSelectedCustomStudyControlBarButtonNumber, 0); } Can you please tell me what I need to do with this code to have the control buttons act under the old behavior? There are no instructions with regards to this.

Is the issue with the control bar buttons, for your own custom studies or what studies? Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

I use the control bar buttons with attached orders to set targets with the 'Trade Management by Study' study and a spreadsheet. When I click on a control bar button I want to it activate the one I click on and deactivate the previous one that was active just like it used to. I would like them to behave under the old behavior all of the time regardless of what I am using them for if that makes a difference. Thank you. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-10-08 17:12:39

I see that the change has been made to this and I appreciate it. When I go to click on a new button though it turns the previous one off but it doesn't turn the new one on. I have to wait for the previous one to turn off and then click on the new button again to turn it on. When I'm adjusting an order it's not very convenient to click once, wait, and then click again to set a new target. Can this be done to where the new button turns on and the previous one turns off simultaneously with one click just like the old behavior?

We are not observing any problem with this. We cannot reproduce what you are describing. Maybe you have other studies which are using custom study buttons which are interfering.

I'm sorry but it's still not working at all. Why can't it just be an option for users to have the control bar buttons work the old way or the new way? It's just not fair to people who have put in time and effort into developing a system that uses these buttons to have you make a drastic change and all of a sudden they operate completely different. I just want to click on a button and have it disable all other buttons just like it used to. Can there just be a setting that allows us to choose?

What you want to do is supported as explained in post #11. See if you notice a problem, just using one chart open, and one instance of the Trade Management by Study study.
