    Override Mouse click and drag to move chart Methods NOT FOUND

    Very simple concept when we click the chart and hold down mouse and move it, the bars/candles on the chart move.
    What method is called to provide this offset to move the chart around when left click and holding it?
    Ive tried a few things with ChartPanel.SetcurrentValue, but i don't see any direct methods to provide bar manipulation, does anybody know about this?

    Im trying to create an indicator that allows click drag up down left right so we can move a chart freely -> Like every other platform on the planet.
    Ive seen lots of people ask for this feature in NJ a while ago, but there's no feature to turn off requiring control to click drag the chart so what were looking for here is very specific.

    We are specifically looking for what object and method is called to provide chart manipulation synonymous with the action of clicking the chart and dragging it to move it, nothing more, nothing less.

    Please respond if you have any insight.

    Hello Entwaze,

    Thanks for your post.

    There would not currently be a way to disable the ability to scroll a chart backwards in time, nor would there be a NinjaScript method to scroll the chart to the latest bar.

    However, I have added votes for you to existing Feature Requests - these are being tracked under SFT-2331 for a NinjaScript method, and SFT-4482 to lock the chart scroll.

    As with all feature requests, interest is tracked before implementation is considered, so we cannot offer an ETA or promise of fulfillment. If implemented, it will be noted in the Release Notes page of the Help Guide.

        Is there any update on this? Maybe on the next version?
        This is SUCH a pain point and boggles my mind why Click+Drag Up/Down does nothing, but I have to go to my keyboard to quickly find/hit CTRL in the middle of a trade where the price is shooting up or down. It literally hits the TP before I get a chance to increase it on a killer run. I have to fumble finding the CTRL key or zooming out on the side of the chart (which I don't even want to do!). By that time I'm taken out of the trade and lose out on A LOT of $$$!
        This is the one thing that's stopped me from fully moving away from Quantower.
        So silly.

        Is there no way for me to programmatically fix this oversight?
        If there is - please let me know! It's driving me bonkers!!!

          Hello Trader4Life,

          SFT-2331 has not been implemented at this time.

          Please note, we receive many requests and cannot reasonably implement all requested features or changes. Interest is tracked internally and if enough interest is tracked, it would be weighed against how feasible it would be to make those changes to consider implementing, so we cannot offer an ETA or promise of fulfillment.

          When new features are implemented, they will be listed in the Release Notes page of the Help Guide. The ID number may be different than the internal feature request tracking ID, but the description of the feature will let you know if that feature has been implemented.
