SC Support,
After selecting a specific bar on a given chart with Crosshairs Tool, I can read the corresponding values in either the Tool Values Window or the Compact Tool Values Window. However, when I move my mouse to enter these values in a spreadsheet (either SC or Excel), the values in the window will change as my mouse crosses other charts in my ChartBook. Is there a way to modify this behaviour so that the Crosshairs Tool is locked on the bar of that specific chart? Currently I have to be careful not to move my mouse while I physically write down the values on paper before entering in a spreadsheet. Obviously, not the most efficient routine so would appreciate your guidance.

Yes. Click again on the chart to disable the Chart Values tool and then the Tool Values Window will show the values for the last bar when the tool was activated.
