    I have tried 5 or 6 times to save my preferred layout of the AutoTrading Window and no method works 100%!?

    Most of the columns I set up appear as I want them but then, for example, each time I restart my Platform Instrument and Version appear back as a column whereas I had unticked Instrument and Version (then saved as below 1. 2 and 3).

    1.  Yes I have saved as xxxx Template when setting up my columns.

    2.  Yes I clicked on  Start on this Computer with this Workspace.

    3.  Yes I clicked on Save and Exit when closing the Platform (5 or 6 times in the last 10 minutes).

    I wouldn’t mind if we had a list of bugs / Issues that we had to workaround / live with, but it is so frustrating spending time trying to achieve preferred layouts which  clearly the Platform is designed to achieve … else why have all the boxes / columns to tick / untick??

    Attached is how I want it with Instrument and Version in same cell.

    Maybe Instrument and Version in separate cells is a must have / default??

    If so (and not a problem) but why then provide a box to tick / untick against Instrument and Version??

    I think that the way you are arranging the columns in the ProOrder window is not saved as a template. I will confirm this, but this is the best explanation for me 😉

    Thank you Nicolas.

    I’ll concede defeat and have Instrument in my layout!

    So after 9 times Open and Close of the Platform … I confirm that the layout below saved and remained as the same when I next opened the Platform.

    So layout of columns in the ProOrder AutoTrading window is able to be saved as an integral part of a  Template (it just won’t save the layout I wanted! 🙁 ).

    I’m not that bothered now I know … and now you all know and it will save you a very frustrating hour!

    More strong coffee needed now!! 🙂

    Wrong! 🙂

    Well a bit wrong … the effect is the same, but by a different means!

    As Nicolas thinks above … ProOrder column layout is not saved as part of a Template, but layout is saved as part of the WorkSpace for whichever Account you have open.

    So when we open a different Template (on same Account) a preferred ProOrder column layout is available, provided we ticked the box  … Start on this Computer with this Workspace … and saved on Exit.
