Remove Study Lables

[jazzallnite]

Is there a way to remove the study lables that appear in the upper left hand corner of each chart? In my view the only purpose they serve is to create unnecessary screen clutter. Traders will "know" what studies and parameters they are using by just looking at their charts. If they need to see the details then they can access "edit studies". Please clean up the screen clutter.
thnx....Dave

Go into Edit Studies then check the Override box for the Title and leave the
space for the override name empty.
If you want you can just put a number to identify them later
Hope this helps

While Alex's solution does work for studies in the formulas folder it is not available for the basic studies. I too would like to eliminate this screen clutter and have asked for this option in the past. It can be a real problem for those running smallish charts.

I clean up screen clutter by changing the words to a simple period - .

a . doesnt take up much space

[dloomis]

oh, now I see, you mean words like Volume.

Guess you would have to write an efs and tell it to not write the clutter.

Commodity Channel Index (20,C)
is a real problem.

not for the FM

slight edit

setStudyTitle(".");

Thanks for the repy but I'm not sure how to use with this code.
Where/ how do I run it?
Do I just copy and apply as an efs to the study/chart in question and change the CCIStudy to say Directional Movement if that is the clutter I want to cleanup?
Here's an example of the problem.

[dloomis]

save this file in your crogramfiles\esignal\formulas\dowhloads then right click on the chart Formulas=> downloads=> cci.efs

[brianb]

Thanks very much!
That sure fixed things.I had a mess displayed before when i saved and opened it,(named it too long).
Q. Can line 10 be changed to some of the other basic studies?
and should line 24 be cci or if it ain't broke......don't fix it.

Brian

[dloomis]

you are right, line 10 is what controls the length etc of the cci formula change it to 14 from 20, if you want.

any stuff between quote marks can be changed to your hearts content

plus breaking these things and fixing them again is part of the fun, you know

[dloomis]

The Formula Wizard adds a lot of stuff, here is what it looks like cleaned up and streamlined
