A minor update with low impact. This version has been tested on builds 751 and 783.

Number 1 – Offline Chart Opening

The Metaquotes fixed the buggy MQL function for opening charts (see MQL announcement for detail No. 17) in build 765. The work-around for opening the offline chart is no longer necessary and I replaced it with the native function, which opens the offline chart directly, without navigation through the offline charts menu.

My recent work-around needed to simulate a keyboard press action. But it involved many keyboard layouts with need of pressing many exotic characters like !, _ $, #, _, €, đ, Đ (try to type € on the US or Chinese keyboards). So I really appreciated that the Metaquotes had fixed their native function.

Number 2 – Finer Template Handling

Template handling has been added. Now you may assign custom offline templates based on a either a offline timeframe you selected, or alternatively the symbol.

Suppose you are running the Omnia Chart indicator on EURUSDm and you set the offline timeframe to H66. When clicking the indicator button for opening the offline chart, it tries to open a chart with a template until it succeeds:

  1. “offlineH66”,
  2. “offlineEURUSDm”,
  3. “offline”

So you may have one universal “offline” template, which you can casually override.
