Hi there I could use help with a panning/zooming question. Sometimes I want to center a specific area on my chart to get a better look. But, when I pan left/right, the bars automatically resize in order to fit new bars that were previously off-screen, and by it doing that, I lose my place on where I was looking. Another example would be wanting to track the origin of a horizontal ray I have drawn. So, I pan the screen right, but as new off-screen bars appear, I lose my line I was tracking as it moves on the screen. Sometimes, I just want to pan across and not necessarily have it auto-fit. I thought maybe it would be "Support vertical scaling/movement with hand tool" but when I enabled this, I wasn't able to pan the screen vertically anymore. Is there a setting this for this? Thank you |

We are not certain of the question, but it sounds like you are wanting to use a different Scale method other than Automatic. If you want to lock the screen at a specific range and not have it move at all, then refer to the following: Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: Using Fixed Values for Top and Bottom of Scale Range Otherwise, check the "Constant Range" or "User Defined" options: Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: Constant Range (Scale Range) Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: User Defined (Scale Range) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Thank you. Changing it to Constant Range did the trick.
