Firstly, NT8 is looking great – thanks for putting together such a fantastic product.
I haven’t had a chance to use the software thoroughly yet, but in the meantime I have a few suggestions and one possible bug I have noticed so far (I’m not sure if these have been reported).
I am using Windows 10 and have written a brief description below and a supporting YouTube video to clarify what I mean here (unlisted link): https://youtu.be/qLrshw2dHm4
1) Possible Bug:
My drop-down menus on the main Control Centre do not align with their heading. For example when I press on the ‘Tools’ menu, the menu appears halfway through the ‘ninja’ on the Ninjatrader logo. I have my resolution set to 1920 x 1080 and I have Windows 10 set to enlarge text etc 125%, so I am not sure if that plays a role (but the menus in all my other programs work ok so I don’t think it should).
2) Suggestion:
When we are adding indicators can we please have names list responsive to typing a string of letters, instead of just taking us to the letter last pressed. This was the same in NT7 and its very frustrating - gets me all the time! For example, if I want to quickly jump to the SMA indicator, I should be able to type ‘s’ ‘m’ or ‘s’ ‘m’ ‘a’ in quick succession the way most windows apps work. Currently if I type SMA in the indicator list it takes me to indicators starting with S, then to ones starting with M, then to A. If I wanted to go to the beginning of the M’s or the A’s I would have just pressed ‘M’ or ‘A’.
3) Question/Suggestion:
If we have a workspace with multiple charts tiled in an arrangement we like (say 5 tiles), is there a way to bring all 5 windows up at once? Currently I am pressing on each chart at the start menu one by one, and every time I do this I’m thinking ‘this is ridiculous’ so I’m guessing there must be a better way already implemented that I don’t know of?
If there’s not, can I suggest a function called something like ‘Workspace Link’ which works the same as interval and instrument link… For example, if you have 4 windows or charts set the same colour on the ‘Workspace Link’, if you bring one of them to the foreground the rest will come to the foreground also.
Thanks again & cheers,
Shane
