Allow me to reply to my own post (LOL). After playing around with the
software a little bit today, I did discover that I had a number of features
or tabs turned off (not selected). When I clicked on view, I was able to
check off Symbols, Layouts, Layers, Charts, Realtime Quotes, and Profile.
The Profile option I checked off puts a tab across the bottom of the screen.
When the cursor hovers over the tab it pops up. I expanded this new window
to about 75% of the full screen. This is neat because as I go from one
stock to another it automatically grabs the data for the active or current
symbol.

Hi Steve,
I don't have that much time under my belt with the old software but very
much like the new UI features.
I haven't been able to add the icon "e" (Profile) back onto the toolbars as
well since upgrading. Any ideas on how to achieve this?
Am also curious if it is possible to have the profile window pop up as a
completely separate window instead of that little tiny slice of one down
below the chart?

Hi Dave - You're welcome 8 - )
One thing I forgot to mention - In windows with multiple tabs, you can also
rearrange them. Just drag any tab across the other tabs until it is
positioned where you want it.
I actually like the new UI very much - the only improvement I could think of
is that, when I turn off auto-hide from time to time ( because I want the
window to stay open for a while ), and then turn it back on when done
working, that tab ( or group of tabs ) always moves to the end of the line.
It would be nice if hidden windows/groups could somehow remember their
position relative to other hidden windows until they are undocked...
