Dennis, it was actually your post some days ago that gave me this idea. This
was a feature I had been waiting for a long time (although I hadn't sorted it
under static array variables), and I was very happy when TJ implemented it.
The next feature I'm hoping for is the possibility to create panes
programmatically as, e.g., Wealthlab seems to be able according to the coding
examples in S&C.

That's exactly what I'm already doing as mentioned in another post although TJ
doesn't recommend it for EOD.
