Prior to v2374 I could:
1. Open chart settings window with a shortcut,
2. Navigate through fields with Tab,
3. Use Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V shortcuts in specific fields,
4. Press Enter to apply settings and close that window,
5. Press Esc to close that window.

Now it's all impossible, except clause 1.

Why your modifications bring regression in program usage, which becomes less efficient and more complex? This is what you call development and evolution?
The main page says: "Sierra Chart is being continuously improved and expanded.". Not in this case.

I really hope SC will rethink this and return lost functionality as soon as possible! The fact that I had to open this thread disappoints me.

What about Tab, Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V? Why are they getting excluded?

We will add support for these
How long to wait for these?

drastic improvements
Among them is mouse pointer disappearing right after first keyboard input in the appropriate input fields. This is a bug.

I have moved my "older" StudyColl. out and put them in a special folder.

If I want to reactivate one, I have to load an older Relaese (I took 2361).

Does that mean I should reactivate all of them with an older release and then save them again?

Yes to be sure they are in the new format.




Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V? Why are they getting excluded?
These are not excluded. These are still supported, in the edit controls. We have not done anything to change this functionality. Although we have noticed that Select All is not supported in edit controls but that is a Microsoft limitation! We do not understand, why you are making these kinds of statements, when this functionality is still supported and the shortcut key for select all was never supported by Microsoft edit controls.

Among them is mouse pointer disappearing right after first keyboard input in the appropriate input fields. This is a bug.
This is an operating system problem. Programs do not have the ability to control this. At least Sierra Chart does not control this. Please do not blame OS problems on Sierra Chart. We have enough to do. Since Windows 7 Microsoft windows has been in a state of deterioration. Microsoft is a demonic company. We do not want to hear further about Microsoft operating system problems. Do not tell us about this again! This is not a Sierra Chart issue. Do not tell us about it again! Do not have the false belief that this is a Sierra Chart issue. That is a 100% false belief of yours. We are being abundantly clear here because of our past experience, with your repetitive postings. Enough is enough. And you probably will not believe us. We could care less if you do not believe us. Do not post again about this. This is a Microsoft operating system problem!! Do not post about it again!

And furthermore, this is not even reproducible.

Update to the latest prerelease for support for the Enter key and Escape keys in the new Settings Windows.
