Thanks d,
I have been struggling with this since the mouse functions were introduced
years ago, and aborted a variety of interesting real-time chart-trading
projects. Please post an example which distinguishes between different
panes/windows, i.e., returns the chartID for the chart over which the mouse is
clicked. Of course, also needed is to have the function reject normal click on
menus, off-chart areas, and other monitors.
Much obliged!
herman.
