Draw lines in TWS

  1. The lines in TWS are not auto-extending, very inconvenient. Any way to make the lines to extend automatically?

  5. It would be nice if there was a feature to only extend the right hand side of the line, without changing the left hand side. I've seen that feature on other tools, but unfortunately not on TWS.

    Then you're in business! (That's what this one did. 963.3c "stable".)
     
  7. Really? They added this feature to this version? I am using TWS standalone so it is not automatically updating.

    I have no idea when they added it; my {very vague} recollection is that there was a trend-line switch *of*some*sort* in Global or in Charts for many years. For all I know, it was an entirely different switch. ("Draw/Do Not draw trend lines.") Couldn't couldn't say. I just knew there was something there. I gave the version number because, well Hey: it's TWS, and switches that worked yesterday may not work tomorrow, y'know'what'I'msayin'....
