Chart functionalities I'm looking for

[ikarpacs]

Greetings, NT forum members!

I've recently started using the desktop version (8.1.2.1 64-bit) and I'm in search of certain chart view features and navigation methods that seem to be missing for me. I'm uncertain whether these options can be activated, accessed through another means, or if they're planned for future implementation or not accessible at all, so I'm seeking some guidance.

Here are the functionalities I'm interested in:

• Adjusting the chart vertically and horizontally without the need for the Ctrl key
• Using Ctrl while rotating the mouse wheel to zoom in on the X-axis at the cursor position
• Employing Ctrl + Shift while rotating the mouse wheel to zoom in on the Y-axis
• Reverting the previous drawing edit with Ctrl + Z
• Selecting multiple drawings and duplicating them with Ctrl + D
• Copying a drawing with Ctrl + clicking and dragging
• Removing outlines from candlesticks
• Changing the background color of the chart

Thank you for your answer in advance!

#ikarpacs - user app share for last two - candlestyles & save chart background image.
The rest, ain’t happening.

Thanks! I found the background color, I was just over scrolled it before. -.-'
But the candlesticks... I double-click on a candlestick in the chart. It opens up the Data Series, which contains the Chart style -> Candle body outline -> Color/DashStyle/Width. And there is no option to remove the outline or for changing the opacity of the color there. What am I missing?

Candlestick borders - as ninja Chris has confirmed this is not possible as core platform functionality, but can be achieved by using an add-on. Search the User app share for candlestyles or similar and you’ll find several iirc, and one or more will have the ability to tweak the candle outline to either make same as candle body or transparent. Can get tricky re: wicks. Perhaps someone else will chime in with their preferred recommendation

I didn't know what User app share was. But I just searched for it, and now I finally understand. Thank you for the update!
