"No matter what I try, I find that changing the trading hours using Alt+V-Intraday changes all of the windows and layouts in the database. I cannot get it to change by window or layout."
It works here ok (v 4.70.5) with both "linked" and "unlinked" charts.
Is there anyone else having a similar problem?
