Hi Harry:

I have MS 8.0 EOD and the title bar of each window, main and inner, has the name and value of each and every indicator.  When I change security with the same options you are using, the titles remain.  The thing that I don't like is that the indicators in the title are in the same color in which they are plotted on the white chart.  This sometimes make them disappear or blend in, in the blue background of the title bar.  I wish there were some way to change the colors of the indicator titles, but don't know how to do that.

I like the fact that they are listed in the title bar because sometimes I accidentally get the same indicator twice in the same chart in which case they plot as one indicator, or, an indicator is listed in the title bar but isn't showing in the chart which means that it either has no values or it is invisible.  By deleting all indicators I can then start over again.

I recently purchased Metastock 8. I have created a template with various indicators located in inner windows. Since Metastock apparently does not print the name of the indicator in the window (as some other programs do)[I am running without inner window title bars to save space], I created text notes and carefully placed the text in the upper left of each inner window. Then I "Save As" the template.

But when I open the template, two things happen: first, the text is no longer in the upper left of each inner window. It is still on the left, but some entries are at the top, some in the middle, some at the bottom, etc. And second, when I try to use the Scan Charts feature [the Change Security buttons at the bottom right of the screen], the text disappears as soon as I move to the next chart. And if I scan back to the first security, the text has disappeared there to! I have the options set to Use Chart as Template, so the rest of the template is fine as I scan; it is only the text that disappears.

Any idea what these problems might be here? I sure would like to be able to identify the indicators I have in the templates!
