By window, you mean “pane” I assume.

This behavior should be exactly as is in my opinion. See argument in earlier posts.

Tomasz,

You are not understanding me....with the new interface...when you open up an indicator in a new window...and say you click on the same indicator again , it will open the same indicator up in a new window....now you have 2 windows with the same indicator.....this should not be....it should detect if the same indicator is already opened...if it is...it should not open another window ? should it ?

Anthony

Anthony,

In new version You INSERT indicator ONCE ONLY. And you DON"T NEED TO re-insert it.

Just click "SAVE" button and that's it - it will be automatically repainted.

What I see with the new interface is this....if you keep clicking on the same indicator, it keeps opening up a new window....the old IB did not do this....if the indicator was already opened, it did not open a new window....

You have all your formulas at your fingertips now.
Even more - you can organize them into FOLDERS that YOU can create and name freely.
MUCH MORE CONVENIENT.

And new formula Editor does allow EVERYTHING that Indicator Builder allowed.

Click on "INSERT INDICATOR" button (THE LAST ONE IN THE TOOLBAR)
and your formula is charted.
Make a change, click "SAVE" button and it is updated.

It is that easy. WAY EASIER than before.
