You can customize indicator colors, then right-click and hit 'save as default' right now in NT7.

Hi Mike,

yes, but this is not what I mean:

I don´t want to set a default color for an indicator, but rather save a selfdefined color by itself (for further use with other indicators, lines, etc ...).

You mean a custom RGB color? I think you can do this using the default Windows color picker, it has option to save to a 'square' on the bottom left of the RGB wheel/picker.

That is the problem.
You can define a color, but not save it.
As far as you close and reopen the window, your color has gone and the square is white again ...
Have I overlooked something?

Wish List is short - be able to copy a chart and paste it inside current workspace, or inside another workspace, instead of saving a template.


I agree with this simple request.
My other request is to be very stable. It currently freezes up too often.

allow the user to change the background color to ANY colour they want, rather then using a set of standard colors. Yes I know you can add an indicator, but thats pretty pointless when there should be a way to enter a RGB color.

@tellytub
You can already do it by typing the rgb colours into the colour field (instead of selecting it). Try:
26, 24, 21
you should see a shade close to black but not exactly
