Default Color for bars...

Setting up a new chart .....you select something different from the Red for down bars and LightGreen for up bars currently set up in the Data Series box...

But then when you set up another chart you have to reselect the bar colors you want again as a default...or if, after creating a chart, you change the chart style from say candlestick to tick bar colors revert again to the initial red and green....is this the way this should work ??

Is there a way to set a general default for the bar colors you want?


Also...noticed the space to right is still set up the same way with the little triangle showing when the last bar is slightly off the space to right. I must hit the End key at least 40 times a day to correct that. Why not have a space to right set, but allow the bars to still update even though they may creep over your space to right setting....then maybe the little triangle could blink perhaps if the bars reach the right margin...it is just way too easy to trigger the bars not updating when you apply a graphic object as your mouse may be moving to the right...there must be a more elegant solution for this situation....

Thanks

Received your files. Can you please outline out the steps you took to hit this error? We would need a reproducible scenario to try and fix. Thank you.

Alfred,

Okay. Next time it happens it would be great to know what properties you changed and what time frame you were trying to save a default for. Thank you.
