Market Analyzer Flashing Column

[frantic]

I made a market analyzer column for Instrument that has a more descriptive name; I'm new to Futures so haven't got the codes memorised yet. I want to make my new column flash yellow, like the default Instrument column.

How can I do this?

I've attached a screenshot. you will see I have my new column and the original instrument column side-by-side. The old Instrument column is flashing but the new one isn't.

Hello frantic,

Thank you for your post.

Glad to assist, unfortunately there is not a setting to re-assign the updating for the Instrument column in this manner via the settings. To confirm, are you looking to set this item via custom programming?

We look forward to assisting further.

Hey Eric, Thanks for responding.

I can do it via custom programming if necessary. Although I couldn't see any code in the default "Instrument" Market Analyzer column that did the flashing. What's the best way to achieve this?

Thanks!!

Hello frantic,

It would not be possible to change the cell color upon price change as the default instrument name column does, but I will put in a feature request for this.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.
