Hello,

 

1. It asks already if you want to close last window.

 By the way - you can easily re-open the window if you have closed it, using File->New->Default Chart.

 

2. It accepts but note that database stores QUOTES, not windows. Window setups are stored in LAYOUT files and broker.newcharts, so

the entire backup is the backup of entire AmiBroker directory together with ALL subfolders.

Best regards,

Subject: [amibroker] Extremely tired of this.

Hi Tomas and everyone else.

 

I have a severe problem with Amibroker, and I am now starting to resent this program that I have very much enjoyed working with.

 

Here?s the problem:

1. I accidentally closed a window the other day. I used all eight tabs, many charts filled with comments and Elliott Wave markings and so on. 100?s of charts. Literally. Amibroker simply must ask if you really want to close the window in the future. It doesn?t now, and that can simply not continue to be the case in the next version.
2. What is even more frustrating is that the program simply no longer accepts the backup of the entire database and the broker workspaces, which included the windows. It reads them from the other hard drive, yes. But then it doesn?t actually save them to the hard drive I work from. So, I spent hours yesterday marking up my charts again, and now the backup doesn?t work, nothing works, and that work was wasted.

 

Please implement these changes in the next version. Maybe it is already there, but I have searched the entire Preferences section and I cannot find it there. I cannot in proper terms express how much work in terms of time and emotion that went into the now lost charts, and how negative I feel about this. I write analysis for other people and institutions, not just for myself, and now I am put out of business for a minimum of 14 days, a lot more time before even half the charts are restored. Of course, half of it is my fault, since I decided to start a new section of charts, which overwrote the old copy. Now, since not even the new work is useable anymore, what does it matter?

 

Regards,

Jan Malmberg
