General Settings >> Customize Chart Shortcut Menu, for the tool and menu options on the right side of the right click menu

I'm trialing Sierra and pretty impressed with alot of things, but is there really not a way to link a quote spreadsheet to a chart? From the docs it looks like this is possible with the non-.NET version only, but that also removes a bunch of other spreadsheet functionality. Linking a sheet to a chart seems like a pretty basic function to be missing.

I am not entirely sure what you are looking for but you can certainly create a spreadsheet containing a number of symbols, and as far as I know you can open a chart ffrom the spreadsheet for any of the symbols as required. This is the documentation:

Sierra Chart - Getting Quotes

You can also link a spreadsheet to a chart so that the data from the chart is fed to the spreadsheet, all real-time of course.

I'm just wanting to link the quote sheet to a group of charts so that when I put focus on the symbol row in the sheet the charts switch to showing that symbol. That documentation seems to say that is possible only using the non-.NET version.

I think that is correct. The .NET version of the spreadsheet will eventually go away if you read thru the forum. It is being replaced with the non-.Net version, and all new functionality is only going into the non.Net version. If you use the spread sheet, then you should be using or transitioning to the non.Net.
