Control Panel Lacks Status Button

[aligator]

Hi,

Unless I have missed the location for current status of :

Orders,
Strategies,
Executions,
Positions,
Accounts, Performance,
Log,
and Connection Status

as currently in NT 7 Control Center, they do not seem to exist in NT8 (5) Control Center in an obvious way. Instead there is a big column list for trade parameters. This is too cumbersome for a quick look to find trading status, especially if there have been many trades. One does not know the current standing orders or current positions, etc.

Also, the BIG logo of NINJATRADER is too intrusive and takes a lot of space and prevents shrinking the Control Center to a minimum size. The circular Ninja symbol seems more appropriate and efficient for a logo as used in NT7.

The design of the Control Center for NT7 is a lot more useful.

Generally speaking, all the "new bordering of everything in the design" takes precious screen real estate. Unused space on the screen can and should be minimized. An example is all the un-necessary blank areas used for borders and the DOM column.

Cheers!

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

Within the Control Center there should be tabs along the bottom such as Orders, Executions, etc. If you do not see these tabs listed please right click in the Control Center->Enable "Show Tabs".

I have forwarded other suggestions to our development team.

Thanks Christopher,

My Control Center did not show the tabs. I needed to right click inside the CC and check the show tabs from the drop down menu.

Please disregard my previous post in this regard.

Cheers!
