A new eSignal user (RealTick refugee) asked me these questions, but I'm not completely sure of the answers since there might be some unique EFS solution. Without some unique solution, I don't think any of this is currently possible. Anyone know for sure?

I am still struggling to get eSignal set-up to my liking.
My biggest two gripes right now (maybe you know of solutions...):
1. I can't find any way to set definite, fixed scale endpoints. I discovered dragging the scales, but that really doesn't do it for me. I want specific endpoints. On the vertical, for things like tick, trin, etc. On the horizontal, I want all my charts to show exactly the same time period. Problem is, by just dragging it by eye, they are often off a bit. And if the charts are different sizes, even slightly, things get really goofy with the legends.
That is, for example, let's say I want all my charts to starrt around 11:00 yesterday. (I'm on the west coast, so that is 2:00 PM NY). Some of the charts will show the 11:00 label, some will not. Some are off just enough so that it decides not to display the label.
Is there any way I can type-in the endpoints? I want to show TRIN from 0 to 2.5, for example. Not from "about 0" to "about 2.5".
I also sometimes want them to end at a specific time in the future, not "now". And not "now + so many minutes". Having the chart end now gives a distorted view. I'd like to see, say, all of yesterday, and as much of today as has already occured, with a blank space to the right for the rest of the day.
2. My other major gripe is the display of the date under the time. This really wastes a lot of space on small charts. Do you know of any way to turn this off?
