Post From: Chart Linking Symbol Only Changes other Linked Chart Session Times

I am on version 1536. I have tried to state the problem simply.

Your logic is that by checking a link option, that chart "subscribes" to that feature, and any chart in the same link group can control that feature.

I would like to have the link be bi-directional. Only charts that have that option set can "publish" to charts that also have that option set ("subscribed"). This allows for more independence and predictability.

Master Mode does this for the simple case of two charts. What if there are 3 or more with more than one link option set on each? The "subscription" model limits the flexibility of linking charts and creates unneeded and time consuming changes that are unexpected.

I figure you are reluctant to change the logic behind this, but in real life this has been a common problem among my peers. I know my detailed report may take a lot of effort for you to follow, but we all struggle with your technical specifications that are also hard to follow. I tried to simplify it so that you can just load the chartbooks and see for yourself what I found.
