Saving a workspace within a Chartbook

Hi, I'm opening multiple charts (different timeperiods for the same instrument) in one chartbook, keeping all charts open, and tiled.
I then Save the Chartbook and close Sierra.

I re-open the Chartbook. (I'm not yet using the list to start various Chartbooks on starting Sierra).

Initially the Chartbook retains my "workspace" with all the charts displayed as required - momentarily.
After a few seconds however, the tiling disappears and I am left with one active chart (smallest timeframe) which is now full-frame.
All the other charts have been minimised so cannot be tiled without a considerable amount of clicking for each Chartbook.

Is it possible to save the "workspace" within a Chartbook please so that it opens with the same display as when I close it. thank you.

It should always open with the last saved layout. Make sure you save the chartbook by selecting File >> Save or File >> Save All once you have the layout the way you want it. Then close Sierra Chart and open the chartbook again and see if it saved your current layout (which it should have done).

Thanks John, yes it does open like I saved it - then it changes:

It should be doing exactly what you want it to. It should not be resetting to a different state.

Please attach your chartbook that is showing this issue to this thread by following these instructions:
