Re: [amibroker] A question for TJ

Hello,

There ARE buttons for that.
---------------------------------------
Look at:
View->Zoom->Taller bars / Shorter bars / in/ out.

You may think these are menus and you need buttons but
in AmiBroker the UI is extremely FLEXIBLE and uses unified toolbar - menu
paradigm meaning that EVERY menu item can be treated as a button
and can be dragged onto toolbar if you want them to be there.
Enter Tools->Customize and you can then DRAG menu items
to become toolbar buttons and vice versa.

Just look at the video that shows among other things that:
http://www.amibroker.com/video/MenuToToolbar.html

It is good idea to watch ALL video tutorials http://www.amibroker.com/video/
and read entire tutorial section of the manual.
http://www.amibroker.com/guide/h_customizeui.html

AmiBroker provides customization features far exceeding Windows standard
but people need to actually read the manual to be aware that functionality is there,
as there are so many feautures that not everything can be displayed non-stop
right before your eyes because there is simply not enough screen space.

As to more canned indicators - they will come too.
