Dashboard Positioning Tips​

  • If you use multiple sub-window indicators (such as AIMS Wave or Grant's AO), you can reposition the dashboard by adjusting InpDashboardX and InpDashboardY.
  • The dashboard's interactive buttons remember their state while the chart remains open.
  • Clicking Lines ON/OFF allows you to toggle line visibility without opening the indicator input properties dialog.
