Sierra,

I am trying to create a hotkey that changes the Tick Value on a chart - is this possible? I read on an old thread that ACSIL might be an option but I have no clue how to proceed with that.

If not, I can create a macro w/ another program to do this but I need to edit the values by keyboard and no mouse.
- Currently I can use tab to move down the Symbol section in Chart Settings but once I reach "Tick Size" I cannot find a key to edit that value - the only way is to click on it with a mouse.?

Thank you

The only built-in way to change the Tick Size for a chart is through the Chart Settings. You could do what you want using ACSIL, but you would have to create the program to do this.

You are correct that the only way to edit the fields in the new windows is to use the mouse.
