Please add ability to join OUTPUT window aside of chart

Request 36 ( #hashtag:wont_be_fixed_but_still_submiting )


We should have an option to link the OUTPUT window aside of any chart , like this:



you might say that output window is global and charts are individual, but that is ok.
we need it to have ability to join with chart window, because at this moment, we have to float those windows and even when we click chart/other window, the OUTPUT window goes behind. that is very frustrating to position windows every time. instead, make them like other platforms have in-one-window.

to avoid any chance for opposite thoughts, that's why i say to make that optional in settings.

If the issue is simply the Output window going behind other windows when they have focus, you can solve this by right-clicking on the Output window then selecting 'Always on top'. This works for any NinjaTrader window as well.

Patrick, it's pitty we are getting tradestation support-like answers again...
well, once again to make you look from the point from where we look.

firstly, we dont want to have that window always on top. we want to put some other windows over that.

secondly,i have mentioned that the HUGE issue is positioning. we have to constantly put multiple windows side by side everytime we move one chart, we have to move output window too.

So, just to repeat again, with one window, things will be uncomparably simple. just please aknowledge what we request and submit ticket.
