Hi Frank,

Templates would be saved from an opened chart via File-->Save As and changing the File Type from Chart to Template. You would then give the template a name and click Save.  I believe by default this should be pointing at the "Metastock" folder under your Documents (Libraries-->Documents-->MetaStock).


You can also right-click in a chart and choose "Save As Default Template" to make it the default for all new Smart Charts.


You can also enable the "Restore Workspace on Startup" checkbox under Tools-->Options if you want it to remember all the previous items you had left open in MetaStock when you re-open MetaStock.

MetaStock  Support,

 All this I'm trying within MetaStock 14.

How can I change the volume bar to green for up and red for down, I want this to work just like all the other software out there  also can I get the stock symbol included next to the name of the stock?

Also I want the template that gets created to be on the chart window pane on the bottom, just like

you have the RMO template . Also how many templates can be created that way.

Hi Frank, There's an FAQ regarding the volume coloration: https://www.metastock.co...q.aspx?fc=143&tp=xml When you right-click on a chart you can go to Chart Window Properties, click the Title tab, and you either adjust the Center or Right portion of the title bar (the left is hard-coded to the company name). You can add as many templates as you'd like to the custom toolbar (there is a visual limit based on the width of MetaStock). Simply right-click on the custom toolbar, choose "Custom Toolbar Properties", and you can then click the "New" button to walk through a short wizard allowing you to create buttons for different file types (such as templates, charts, layouts).
