Certainly Sheets (tabs) within Layouts apply
the same primary ticker so just click at the bottom of the window on the Sheet
tabs won’t achieve what you want. I would either type in a new ticker in
the ‘select symbol’ box at the top of the screen or create a set of
Layouts each one named after the object index so that you only need to double
click on each layout as you go through your screening. Sorry, I can’t
think of an easier solution without using some advanced macro/scripting.

... No problem. What I want is a specific symbol preselected per
chart page. The rest of the charts on this page are all derived AddToComposite
data and forced to display only those with Foreign AFL function. So by design,
they show the same thing no matter what ticker is chosen for the main price
display. All I want is when I select the tab, the main price chart is for the
predetermined symbol which matches the indicators on the page. e.g. I have a
layout for McClellan indicators. Let us say I have 3 chart pages each with 3
panes. Tab 1 is DJI. Pane 1 is DJI prices. Pane 2: DJ McClellan Breadth
Oscillator. Pane 3: is DJ Breadth Summation Index. Tab 2 is RUT and so on. This
way, all I need is to select the tab to review DJI and RUT without also having
to select the ticker and never have mismatched charts. Watchlist or favorite
list will not do the job.

Geo,
I am a newbie with the software so go easy
on me as I am trying to understand what you are looking to accomplish.
Are you trying to provide a quick and easy
way to access certain symbols? Have you thought of using a watch
list or the favorites?
Or are you trying to show the price of a
stock as compared to the ^DJI?
Dave

I had tried this. However I needed
to create a layout for each ticker. More cumbersome than just selecting the
ticker for the correct combination. If it can be done via AFL or script, then I
can have 10 or more tabs each fixed to one ticker. And save this as one special
layout for this application.

Save
“^DJI” chart window as a layout. Each time you load this layout it
will use ”^DJI” as the default ticker and any studies previously
charted and saved to the Sheet/Layout.

Subject: [amibroker] Selecting a
ticker from AFL
Is there a way to automatically
select a ticker from AFL? I would like to fix the price chart display in a given
pane to say ^DJI. I can force the display by using SetForeign. However, AB
still uses the currently active ticker to store studies I create in the
indicators in that chart page. So this does not work for me. I need an
equivalent to selecting a ticker from the Symbols list.
