I wanted to copy one chart in my chart book and I chose "Duplicate Chart to Chart Book." It duplicated all the charts in that chart book. I did this on several charts until I realized it was duplicating all charts, over and over. Now I cannot tell which charts to eliminate to clean up my chart book. I only want the latest of each chart. Now I am clicking "Duplicate Chart" only, which works to duplicate the one chart.

You would just need to look at either the CW menu or the Window >> Windows and Chartbooks and determine the actual Chart Numbers of the charts that you do not want and then close them one by one.

I would like to delete or close copies/duplicate of charts from different chartbooks. I followed above instruction. It did not work. For example I do have several copies chart number #15. Al the copies have same chart number. If I delete one it will delete all the copies. I could not figure it out how to close a chart. Strange. I need one chart to keep and like to delete only copies. Please let me know how can I delete only duplicates. Thanks

This cannot possibly be true: . Al the copies have same chart number.
We really do not know what the situation you have is. Are there charts that are set to be visible across Chartbooks? Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Situation is I do use multiple chart book for different time frame charts. For example I have chart number #15 and 18 in Chartbook 1 . it shows the same chart with same chart number in Chartbook #2. I would like to delete those two charts from chart book two. If I delete from there, It also delete or close my chartbook1 as well. I like to keep chart 15 and 18 in chart book1. If you need further information please let me know.

Deleting charts #15 and #18 in Chartbook2 will not delete them in Chartbook1. The charts do not work like drawings. When you duplicate a chart, it is now its own chart - it does not have any tie to the chart that it was duplicated from.

By the way when ever I open a new chart book these two charts automatically shows up. I do not want those charts up in new chart book. Is there any way I can change setting. Thanks

This is not possible. If you select "File >> New Chartbook" there should not be any charts at all in that chartbook. It should be a blank chartbook. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

If I open a new chart book without an another chart book open, You are right. But if I open the said chart book it will automatically show three charts from this specific CB. We are discussing this with you guys for couple of days. What is the solution. I do not want to delete everything then start again. By the if I want to save a specific chart in my system as Sierra file. What is the best way create .cht file. Thanks

If you have a chartbook open and you select "File >> New Chartbook", but you are still seeing the charts from the other chartbook, then that is because those other charts are set to have the option for "Window >> Window Always Visible" enabled. This allows a chart from another chartbook to still display even though the other chartbook is selected. Refer to the following: Window, CB and CW Menus: Window Always Visible (Window) By the if I want to save a specific chart in my system as Sierra file. What is the best way create .cht file.
Use the "File >> Save As" option to save a chartbook to a specific name. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
