An additional "F" Fixed Scale Button

[Alfred]

Want to add to Fixed Scale considerations....when in fixed scale and price runs off the top or bottom of screen, automatically cancel fixed scale.....what is the advantage to having price run off the screen....??
Make this a user option to auto cancel....a volume chart may run off the chart OK as one example where one may wish to keep fixed scale....

This auto cancel fixed scale was suggested 7 years ago here....!!

Question on Fixed Scaling...
06-01-2012, 10:51 AM
Say you have fixed scaling enabled on a chart....would it be possible to write an indicator to automatically kill fixed scaling when price may extend above or below the chart window...??

Or what about the possibility of a graphic object or indicator that would auto scale even when in Fixed Scale mode...?? Or perhaps an alert when prices run off the chart ??

Often one can have fixed scaling enabled on purpose or accidentally and prices can easily run off the chart when perhaps you were not immediately aware fixed scaling was enabled...

Please add my vote as well. For now, I have my own hotkeys that have to position the cursor there and click on the F. I cannot do it on the indicators because the F is not always in the same place, so having hotkeys defined for these would be awesome.

We always like to check with the Development Team to make sure the tracking number aligns with things on their end or if the request deserves it's own tracking number. I can confirm that your vote was added to SFT-2814.

On a full height chart with a 1920 x 1200 monitor....with the F button in the upper right corner...
that is a long way to go many times a day to cancel Fixed Scale....an additional F button in the lower right would be helpful....
and a hot key to cancel Fixed Scale would also be helpful....

Perhaps add another "F" button at lower right of chart...screen shot below...

On a large size chart an extra button may be easier to hit to cancel fixed scale.


And....is there a hotkey to cancel fixed scale...??


....Thanks....

I would like to add my vote for hotkey, which could cancel fixed scale. I do it many times a day and hitting the tiny box in the right hand corner (especially when you are in a hurry) is not too much handy...
