IB: order ticket too big?

Quote from dst:

Option Trader,

You can choose the "compact" view of the order ticket (located at the bottom right corner of the screen) - this will simply re-arrange the window into set of tabs;

However, it does not provide the option of OCA group.

 the issue with order ticket sometimes popping up in the middle of the screen we already resolved

What do you mean by the "middle of the screen"? Do you mean this very problem I mentioned of the bottom getting shaved off?
 
You can add the OCA column to the main TWS screen (Menu Page -> Layout)

I agree it is a problem (OCA being cutoff at the bottom of the order ticket window and not being available on the compact view of the same) when running at 1280 x 1024 (or lower resolutions)
 
Under "Order Columns"* we have made "OCA group" one of the selections (the word "Status" appears in bold right above it); yet it does not appear on the top of the TWS screen.

*I.e. "Configure" then "Global Configuration" then "Order Column"

Yes, the top line is the market line, the bottom column header is the order line. You can re-arrange the order to determine how they stack.

yet it does not appear on the top of the TWS screen.

Yes, I don't think think the rapid order entry area is configurable (if that's what you mean) but you can place an order directly from the main "grid"
 
Quote from DAV:

When the order ticket in the compact view, OCA group can be found on the last tab - Misc.

I must be blind - I don't see it, all I see on Order Ticket/Misc is these 4 sections:

Volatility
Hedge Delta
Reference Price Type
Stock Price Monitoring
 
I updated my standalone TWS to the latest (Build 862.9a) and I now see OCA on the Misc tab in compact view.
