IB TWS EFS to submit orders

[simonnallen]

The following EFS worked fine in 10.6 but does not work at all in 11 and I see no errors. The EFS adds 4 buttons to a chart to allow you to submit orders. I've tried emailing support but so far 3weeks no response!!!

Re: Re: Re: IB TWS EFS to submit orders

From the EFS KnowledgeBase article on Mouse Functions

Starting with version 11.1 all mouse functions require the use of the Shift key when called from the chart. This change was done to avoid conflicts between EFS and chart mouse events (such as right clicking or double clicking) without compromising any backwards compatibility.
