Template is a set of the chart window properties that can be applied to the other charts. Except financial instruments and period, all chart properties are stored in templates:
- type and color of the chart;
- availability and color of background, grid as well as volume chart;
- chart scale;
- OHLC line property;
- attached advisor and its parameters;
- attached custom and technical indicators with their settings;
- line studies;
- date spacers;
- color of horizontal and vertical scales, and the text.
When the template is overlaid on the chart the settings recorded are attached to the base data (financial instruments and period). For example, one can create a template that includes MACD, RSI and Moving Average indicators, and after that use it for the other charts. In this case the chart windows will have one and the same view for different financial instruments and periods.
The templates are stored in the "Templates" directory in TPL-files. Once created, the template can be used an unrestricted number of times. During the process of terminal installation there is created a common template in the file "DEFAULT.TPL". Later this template can be changed using characteristics of the chart's active window.
Templates Control
In order to create a new template it is necessary to run the command of menu "Charts — Template — Save Template As...", homonymous command of the chart's context menu or press the button
on "Charts" toolbar. As a result based on information from the chart's active window there will be created a new template. To change existing template one should perform the same actions, only that, instead of new filename, it is necessary to choose an already existing template. The template can be overlaid upon the chart's window by choosing the required file from the template control menu. The command of the menu "Charts — Template — Remove Template" removes the chosen template. Attention: the template "DEFAULT.TPL" cannot be removed. Profilescontrol
The profiles' concept offers a convenient mode of operation with the groups of charts. When a profile is being opened, each chart, including all its settings, is positioned exactly where it had been during the profile saving. The list of the all charts' windows of current profile is located in the menu "Window". All changes in all charts' windows of the given list are automatically saved in the current profile. The current profile name is displayed in one of the fields of the statusbar and the corresponding box is checked in the profile names' list that is located in the profile control menu. During the terminal installation there is a profile created by default (DEFAULT). Initially in it there are stored four chart windows of the main currency pairs "EUR/USD", "USD/CHF", "GBP/USD" and "USD/JPY".
Profile control
All profile management commands are located in the menu that can be called by command of main menu "File — Profiles" or by pressing the button
on "Charts" toolbar. In order to use a new profile it is necessary to choose a required name in this menu list. The command "Save Profile" of the profile control menu enables to save the current configuration of the chart's windows, and "Remove Profile" — to remove profiles. The command "Next Profile" and the button F5 search all existing profiles one after another. Attention: the current profile and the default profile (DEFAULT) cannot be removed.
