First, create a
Schedule (Setup: Schedules). Let's assume in this specific
example that we want to open up both a chart and a quotepage. Your
schedule should contain two Actions. The first action will be
"Open a Chart" with your specific chart selected in the list.
The second will be "Open a Quotepage" with your specific quotepage
selected. Now, we can setup this schedule to be activated with either
a keyboard shortcut (function key) or a button in a chart. To
setup the schedule for activation from a keyboard shortcut, open the
schedule preferences by double-clicking on the schedule name in the list
on the left of the schedules window. At the bottom of this window
is a groupbox labeled "Shortcut Key". Select a function key such
as F2 which you'd like to use. Now, whenever the F2 key is
pressed, the selected chart and quotepage will appear.
To create a button in a chart which will run this schedule (and thus
open the chart and quotepage), open any chart, and add the Button
Indicator (for more information on adding indicators to charts, click
here). The Button
indicator should be setup with Purpose of "Run a Schedule" and with the
proper schedule filled into the box below. For convenience, you
can simply clear out that box, and then select the proper schedule name
from the list of schedules j just above that box. This action will
fill in the name for you automatically. Now click "OK" to add the
button to your chart. Each time you click on the button, the chart
and quotepage should appear.
