In previous versions of Sierra Chart when I would "Export Bar and Study Data to Text File" it would return the ID and Subgraph number, for example "ID6.SG1" but now it seems to return the default subgraph name such as "Mov Avg 3/10" or "%K". Is there a way to change it so it shows the ID and Subgraph number?

Nothing has changed in this regard.

In the case of the Spreadsheet Study being exported, if you want those types of identifiers, try setting those names as the Short Name for each of the Subgraphs for the Spreadsheet study:
Chart Studies: Subgraphs Tab >> Short Name

If nothing has changed then why does it default to exporting the study name instead of the ID and SG number? Or are you saying it has always done that? Are you saying there is no way to have it display the ID and SG by default? The only way I can do it is if I go in and manually type in the ID and SG numbers into the Short Name? Thanks for your help with this.

This was never supported:
instead of the ID and SG number?
The names that you see at the first line of an exported file for study subgraphs, will always be the subgraph names.

I remember this being different in older versions. When I would Export Bar and Study Data it would default to ID14.SG1 if I didn't enter a short name, but now it provides the name of the subgraph, for example, it now says background or vertical line bottom instead of what ID and SG it is. I can work around this but is it possible to make it so that a subgraph doesn't show up in the export bar and study data? For example, if the study has 2 subgraphs, can I change it so that only one shows up on the export bar and study data file?

Only by hiding the subgraph that you do not want to be exported. Otherwise, all subgraphs that are displayed will be exported.
