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

So My thinking of how it should work is not the same as yours. Your documentation states: "For example, if you have enabled Link Symbol and Link Bar Period for a particular chart and you change the symbol in another chart or the bar period in another chart that has the same Link Number, then the chart with these options enabled will be changed to match. " So if I have a chart that only shares a symbol with other linked charts, anything I change on that chart will change on any other linked chart that has that option enabled. To me it would make more sense if all charts that share the same link option change that option only when another chart that shares that option changes, not any chart that is linked by symbol only. What if I want to have a chart that keeps everything unique, except the symbol? I might have a 24 hr session time for a chart. All others have regular trading hours. If I change the session time on any of the charts linked with the session time option, they all change, but the one without the session time option checked does not change. However, if I change the session time in the one that does not have the session time option checked, all the rest change. I only want the ones to change their session times if they are linked that way, not if any chart linked some other way changes. Does that make sense? I have had settings change on me, and then I have to change them back. If that is the way it is supposed to work, then the only choice I have is to not link charts that I don't want others to have shared settings. Sort of limits the benefits of linking. To me, if the link option is checked, then all charts with that link option and number will share the settings. The way it is coded, if the link option is checked, any chart linked by number, but not by option, can change the settings of other charts. Is that the intended design? I appreciate your patience and hopefully I am making myself clear. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2016-08-19 18:59:29
