The Tools Default Options section allows you to change properties of the Charting, Advanced Charting, Notation, and Accounting tools.
Clicking the "OK" button will apply new default settings and will apply all changes made in this window to any NEW tools or text created from this point forward. Any tools, within the active Chartbook that have already been created will NOT be affected by this change unless you press the "Apply To All Charts" button. These new default settings will then be stored in Track 'n Trade Pro and applied to any new and past files upon the opening or reopening of those files.
Simply click on the "Apply All Color Changes" button if you would like to apply ONLY the color changes to the tools in all the Active Charts.
If you would like to change settings for one specific tool, you will need to right-click on that tool and select the individual tool settings. See Individual Tool Settings for more information.
