| Is there a way to turn off the log window? Pop ups are a pain. If not can you put one in? Thanks. |

| No, definitely not. If the Message Log is opening there is a reason for it because there is a particular message you should be aware of.

| I understand that but shouldn't that be left to up to the user?  Problem is that every Sunday when I start up my system for the week I get a ton of log windows.  Also, and more frustrating, everyday after the market close I get numerous log repeating the same thing stating: "TransAct Trading | Disconnected from the server. | 2014-08-14  16:33:36" This happens every single day when the Globex shuts down for maint. |

| Sounds like you are referring to the Trade Service Log. That will open up during  connections to TransAct and I think also disconnections . This is something which TransAct has control over. They have the ability to pop open that window through the DTC protocol. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

| Yes of course. You should have no trouble moving the Log windows wherever you need. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

| No ,I meant the default location where it pops up. Not moving it once it pops up. thanks |

| Here's what I do: Grab the corner of the Log and shrink it to a small size, then part it out of the way. When I want to see what is in the log, I grab the corner again and expand it. Result: no pop-ups. |
