There is such a thing on the graphic

I've seen it done in any colour, if I'm not mistaken.

How?

F8 and.

But this is also the colour of the grid, so uncheck

Got it, thanks!

The grid is needed, too bad it's not separated.

P.S. How do you shift 15 bars from the right-hand edge programmatically?

How about this?

How about this?

Yes, but that's pushing the button away

When you drag the marker with your hands, it rests before reaching the right edge quite a bit - this is a fundamentally wrong limitation of the terminal!

When you press the button, the outermost bar almost sticks to the right edge, so the information value of the chart is lost.

You should press the button without reaching 15-20 bars and not perform this operation every time a new bar appears. Compress only once.

P.S. Why such a restriction and so much empty space?

Percentage

Works, but the minimum is an indentation that can be set by hand and at least

Visually, it's about a 10% minimum. Why doesn't 5% work

[Alekseu Fedotov]

Vitaly Muzichenko #:

Works, but the minimum is an indentation that can be set by hand and at least

Yes, no less than 10% of the window.

[Vitaly Muzichenko]

Alekseu Fedotov #:

Yes, at least 10% of the window.

So it turns out badly.

Good afternoon everyone. I have 20 tools open and need to load the same template on all of them. Is it possible to automate this with a script? If so, can you please share the code on how to do it?

make a script - go through the charts one by one ( ChartFirst(), ChartNext() ) and apply the required template ( ChartApplyTemplate() ) to them
