Visual Style and window in focus


Question

Posted

Maybe this already exists, but couldn't find it.

When running MT in "Black" visual style with multiple charts AND trade of the charts using keyboard shortcuts, I have no idea which chart is in focus.

It is easy place a trade from the wrong chart.

Maybe chart window top or at least text on top can be painted differently.

Text is painted differently (different font color). however, because all the windows are in their own thread, sometimes Windows does not realize the window is not really active and multiple windows show up with the "active" coloring. .  I've looked at that but not something I can do anything about.

This feature is useful, but you can use a workaround (if you don't mind)

I use Autohotkey on a daily basis, so I adapted someone else's script to highlight MT's windows when they're on focus.

If you're willing to try it, there it goes. Just remove the .txt extension

 

Cheers
