How to prevent non-intentional chart closing? How to increase font size?

Hi guys,

is there a script that can prevent it from happening, I mean I have a lot of charts on a screen, and sometimes I can close non intentionally one of them and all the drawings are gone.

So is there a way to make metatrader ask upon chart close or any other way that will block chart close?

And one more thing. Is there a way to make vertical lines on the chart with visible text attached to them, I want e.g. make a template and apply it to different currency pair, so i don't have to make the same job for each currency pair?

Not sure how to prevent an unintentional chart closing, but you can click on
Tools/Options then click on the "Charts" tab and make sure the "Save deleted charts to re-open" box is checked. Then click on "OK" to save the changes.

Once you have that completed it will save all of your closed charts. It has been a while since I have opened a closed chart like that, but from memory I think it saves all your trendlines and drawings etc.

Now all you have to do once you accidentally close a chart is click on "File" then move your cursor down to "Open Deleted" and it will automagically populate the chart(s) you have closed and all you have to do is click on the one you closed.

One other thing. You might want to consider to make it a habit of using the "Remove" feature after you have opened a closed chart. By deleting the old chart, you won't have to try to figure out which one is the one you want once the list gets populated with several closed charts of the same pair. This way, you will always have the latest and greatest version of the chart to open with your drawings and text on it. But on second thought, I guess you could leave some of the charts there in case you wanted to revert back to an older chart. Something to ponder....

Hope that helps.

Thanks SatchFan, it is a nice solution.

By the way I found a way to make description of vertical line visible, but the font is so small, does anyone know how to increase font on vertical line??? And how to get rid of limitation on lenght of text in a description of the vertical line?

To make description visible on vertical line you got to press F8, go to general, and click in the bottom right "show object description".
