If I am using the cursor keys to scroll left / right, the chart values window - bar/study values - do not change. As soon as I touch/move the mouse, it does change to the correct bar values. Bug? If not, please add this as a usability request. JohnR |

In SC version 2099, using the left/right arrows on the keyboard with the crosshairs enabled works for me on an intraday chart. There is a non-constant lag though, sometimes it takes a second or two for the chart values window to update, and sometimes it updates as soon as the arrow key is pressed.

Support, I was on 2098 and downloaded and now running latest prerelease - 2101 to try. I get the same results. Keyboard arrows do not cause the Chart Values for Tools to change as the chart scrolls. I do realize this is not a support / defect issue, but if someone could suggest what to try to determine the cause, it would be nice to have this capability. - I have looked at a utility that comes with Logitech and I do not have any keyboard assignment set. - Tried using the numberpad arrows with the numlock off, same no good results. - Deleted and reloaded my mouse and keyboard drivers. - Run with and without Logitech SetPoint utility. - Tried 2 keyboards, one generic and one Logitech. - I am going to read up on AutoHotKey, (it's been a while since I last used it) and make Alt-'arrow' emulate mouse movement left & right. I was able to create a script in AutoHotKey that emulated the left and right scrolling of the mouse. Not sure why my system some sort of VooDoo-DooDoo, but this works so, on to the next thing. Here it is if others are interested. #NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases. ; #Warn ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors. SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability. SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory. ^Left:: MouseMove, -3,0,0,R return ^Right:: MouseMove, 3,0,0,R return Thanks in advance for anyone's time to try to help. User462086 - thanks for your reply and time. JohnR Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-05-08 19:33:31
