Hi guys,

Love the platform. I just wanted to ask you, I have the Trade Simulation Mode On mapped to the 'S' key to toggle between Sim and Live and I wanted to suggest that when the 'Do you want to disable...' dialogue pops up (the window is focused the 'Yes' button). Would it make sense to code the Escape key to close this window? In a fast environment, keyboard commands are superior to having to click certain things and that window sits on the screen until you click as far as I know.

Let me know what you think!

This is not within our control. This is a type of dialog window from the operating system. And besides we would not want to make it closed that easily. Also pressing Escape would just simply mean no change in state.

Also pressing the Enter key acknowledges the Yes button. So just simply press enter.

Understood. However what happens when a user opens the Study Settings window and then presses the Escape key is the same thing that most applications do--close the dialog window. Why would it be coded to one window instance and not the other, unless the dialogs are fundamentally different?

Another keyboard alternative is to use Alt-Y or Alt-N

That particular prompt is completely controlled by the operating system.
