Dear Support Team,

I have encountered the following issue. I am using 1 instance of SC. I have opened 3 chartbooks: each chartbook for a different trading symbol. Each opened chartbook contains 3 attached chart windows and 4 detached chart windows. 1 of the 4 detached chart windows is using the option "Window -> Always on top". When I am switching between the chartbooks all of the chart windows but 1 are switching the symbol. The 1 chart window which displays the same symbol even though I am switching the chartbook is the detached chart window with the "Always on top" option. How can I achieve the behavior when all the chart widnows within each chartbook are displaying the correct symbol when I am switching between the chartbooks.

Thank you in advance for your reply.

What is occurring is that the window from the other chartbook is staying viewable, even though you have changed chartbooks. This has nothing to do with the setting for "Always on Top". Rather, it is the setting for "Window >> Window Always Visible".

When this option is enabled, then that window will stay visible when you change chartbooks. Refer to the information here:
Window, CB and CW Menus: Window Always Visible (Window)
