Quote from Tim Downey:
I've quickly scanned through the posts on this thread, and do not have the savy many of you do when it comes to this techno stuff.
Regarding Ensign though, I have not met anyone in any conference or other gathering where Ensign was being used that mentioned a simple dumb thing I stumbled across several years ago.
What I learned to do instead of trying to minimize windows and and jumping back and forth from layout to layout is use the huge potential window panel that's available.
I simply build any chart I want-time frame, indicator on different time frames, market internals windows, etc.
Then I simply shove the window to the top and bottom of the visible screen leaving just enough to grab should I get in trouble.
Then go to the scroll bar on the side, move it little wiggle and this enlarges the area of the work space you now have available.
Do this over and over and you can make many, many full screen window you wish.
If you want the extra space you can eliminate the tool bars and tabs and the like. But how much space do you need?
Simply build all the charts you wish in the appearance you wish and then get a little more skilled and using your mouse and move the work area up and down to the desired screen layout.
Works fine for me.
You can do this side to side to. I found that doing this became a bit of a headache lining up things after a while so I only use the up-down scrolling across my two panels side by side.
This makes many, many full size windows potentially available.
Just a thought.
