How do i save this layout ? i do not want it as my default. do I treat it like a montage buttons and "save hotkey layout" and add it to charts as needed ? or use the "group" feature somehow ?
Thanks new feature is useful, but the same hotkeys on the chart are not properly functioning as they work on the montage, is it something i am missing here?
Most probably because of the focus window. When you run a hotkey that reads last price with LAST, the LAST comes from the current montage. Being on the montage screen clicking the button there, your montage is in focus therefore LAST can be read. If you click the button on another window, you would need to change the syntax a bit depending on the hotkeys you use. Either by FOCUSWINDOW(MONTAGE) or by creating and calling montage objects like $MONTAGE.LAST
Thanks, Peter, it is really helpful when you illustrate the new features. BTW, how did you get 5.8.0.2? I went to auto up grade and it said I was current on 5.8.0.1
