Hello,

Thank you Jim for all these suggestions. I found most of
them really nice.

As for general point 3.: you can zoom out now using the same toolbar button
if you just press "SHIFT" key while clicking on it.

Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko

> GENERAL
> 
> 1. Increase the number of Chart Sheets... I would love to have more

> 
> 2. Make the default Price indicator accessible via AFL calls, i.e., 
> PriceTitle= "...", PriceColorBackground = RGB value, etc.

> 
> OBJECT MODEL
> 
> 1. Add Watch Lists to automation object model. Ideally a Watchlists 
> collection (create and delete any Watchlist) and a Watchlist class 
> (add and remove stocks).
> 
> 2. Suggest adding a SecurityType property to Stock. Stock.

> funds as line charts.
> 
> iif(SecurityType = stock, graph0style = 64, graph0style = 1);
> 
> 3. Make the Chart Sheets objects and each pane too. ChartSheet
> (0).Pane(0) = Price, ChartSheet(1).Pane(1)=myAFL, ChartSheet(2).Pane
> (0).BackgroundColor = RGB, etc.
> 
> 
> 
> AUTOMATIC ANALYSIS/EXPLORATIONS
> 
> 1. Watch List Sort Option. I sort my Explorations from strongest to 
> weakest; when saving to a Watch List, it's changed to an alphabetical 
> sort. I'd really like the Watch List to stay in Exploration sort 
> order. It would be nice if there were a sort watchlist option.
> 
> 2. Preferences: allow user to save a Default Font for the code 
> window. Coding is much neater in a fixed font.
> 
> 3. "Total Tickers Found = " Add to status bar on bottom of Auto 
> Analysis panel so we know how many stocks are in an Exploration 
> result set.
> 
> 4. Exploration Summary Row. Option for the last row of the results, 
> in bold font, column summaries with simple functions such as Count(), 
> Sum(), Average(), etc.
> 
> 5. Column Arrays in addition to Column0Name, Column1Name; i.e., 
> ColumnName = ["Open","High",...], ColumnFormat = [1.0,0.2,...]
> 
> 6. "Range, n Last Days." The default is 7, but I'm constantly 
> changing it to 0 with nearly every use. Suggest allow saving it in 
> Preferences. 
> 
> 7. When right-clicking on Results, add a "Delete Found Set" command. 
> This would delete all of the stocks in the Results from the 
> Database. Makes it easy to scan for stocks the user might want to 
> remove.
> 
> 8. Add a Column0Width, Column1Width, etc. command.
> 
> 
> 
> 
> INDICATOR BUILDER
> 
> 1. Add a Remove button so that selected Indicators in the left window 
> are removed from the Indicator List. The AFL wouldn't be deleted, 
> just removed from the list.
> 
> 2. Let user set the default font for the code window in Preferences.
> 
> 
> 
> AMIFEED
> 
> 1. For TC2000 tab, add a pulldown list that shows all Watch Lists. 
> Allow the user to download any TC2000 Scan --> AmiBroker Watch List. 
> [Quotes Plus users might like the same functionality].
> 
> 2. Single Ticker Entry. Allow user to type in one ticker and retrieve 
> one stock.
