    Hi all MC users out there

    Do any of you know of a way of instering a column in a scanner window which displays the symbol description?

    Also, is there any easier way to paste/import a list of symbols into a scanner window, other than picking from the insert symbol window?

    Thanks in advance

  2. Hi Syn,

    To have symbol description in the scanner, write indicator using the following code

    -------------------
    plot1(description, "description");
    -------------------

    insert it into a scanner window and you will get a column of descriptions.


    As for an easier way to paste symbols into the scanner, the latest MC 5.0 beta 4 supports pasting multiple symbols from files.
