Understood, many thanks for the tips. Glad to know it can be done, I see what you mean. The default drag and drop stuff is basically just a convenience to get something up on the screen. The real flexibility is in the code.

I can get the two tickers split this way, however if I change the style of the chart as you suggest in step 2 below, it changes the style on both the top and bottom ticker.
