Hi Sierra,

For the non main window page (second screen), how do I attach another chart to form tabs at the bottom? In the first picture as you can see, I have 3 tabs open for which i can toggle in between on the main screen.

On my second computer screen where I have detached 3 tabs but do no wish to squeeze them into 1 screen, can I do the same and form them into tabs like on the main screen for which I can toggle in between them?

I think you might need to use a different instance to do that.

If you just want to have different tabs based on timeframes, you could perhaps use a control bar and put the different timeframe buttons on there which would act like tabs.

TonyCipriani is correct. You can only group charts within the confines of the main window. Therefore, what you are asking for is to have 2 main windows, which would require a second instance of Sierra Chart. The easiest way to do this is to use the "File >> New Instance" option. Refer to the following:
File Menu: New Instance (File)
