Menu	Previous  Top  Next

If you right-click anywhere in the overlay drawing area, the menu shown below will appear. This menu contains everything you will find on the toolbar, plus a few additional items.

	Trendlines is equivalent to pressing the Trend button on the toolbar. Fibonacci Retracements is equivalent to pressing the Retrace button on the toolbar. Fibonacci Extensions is equivalent to pressing the Extend button on the toolbar. Andrews' Pitchforks is equivalent to pressing the Pitchfork button on the toolbar. Time Cycles is equivalent to pressing the Time button on the toolbar. Text is equivalent to pressing the Text button on the toolbar.
	Set Price Here lets you specify the price corresponding to a point on your chart. Once you do this for two prices, ChartOverlay will display the corresponding price in the title bar (top of the window) when you move the cursor. Draw Parallel Trendline Here is equivalent to pressing the Parallel button on the toolbar, except that it uses the point you clicked to make the drawing. When the selected item is a Pitchfork, the new parallel will be drawn as a Warning Line (unless you have chosen Automatically Extend in the Parallel dialog). Add Selected Extension Here is equivalent to pressing the Extend button on the toolbar, except that it uses the point you clicked to make the drawing. Add 45 Degree Line Here draws a 45º line through the point you clicked. Add -45 Degree Line Here draws a -45º line through the point you clicked.
	Refresh clears the overlay and redraws all objects; in Static mode (eg, for Windows® NT, 95, 98, ME), updates the background.
	Edit Selected Item is equivalent to pressing the Edit button on the toolbar, except that if you are pointing to a item it uses that instead of the one that was selected.

	Erase Selected Item is equivalent to pressing the Erase button on the toolbar, except that if you are pointing to an item it uses that instead of the one that was selected. You can also use the Delete key. If you have started creating an object (eg, a Pitchfork or a free-standing Extension), the partial object will be erased. Erase All Items is equivalent to pressing the Er All button on the toolbar. Erase Automatically, when selected, erases all previous lines whenever you draw a new line. Undo Erase whatever you just erased (Erase Selected or Erase All).
	Hide Selected Item makes the selected item temporarily invisible. If your drawing is cluttered, you can use this command to simplify it. Show Hidden Items makes all hidden items visible again.
	New erases everything you have drawn and creates a new empty document. Open erases everything you have drawn and replaces it with a document that you saved previously. Save writes all of the objects you have drawn to a file in a format that can be reloaded later. Save As asks for a file name and then writes all of the objects you have drawn to that file.
	Save Chart Picture asks for a file name and then writes an image combining the overlay and its background. Copy Chart Picture to Clipboard copies an image combining the overlay and its background to the Clipboard, from which it can be pasted into another application.
	Always On Top makes the overlay remain on top of other windows even when you click in them (or it turns this feature off).

	Logarithmic Scaling turns Logarithmic Scaling on or off. When Logarithmic Scaling is on, equal vertical distances on a chart represent equal percentage changes in price. When it is off, scaling is Arithmetic (equal vertical distances on a chart represent equal changes in price amount).
	Crosshairs selects the crosshair-style cursor. Cross selects the Cross cursor. Arrow selects the Arrow cursor.
	Help opens the Help dialog. Options opens the Options dialog. About opens the About dialog that provides information about ChartOverlay. Register opens the Registration dialog so that you can enter (or check) your Registration Key. Check For Updates consults the Omnium Software server and tells you whether a new version of ChartOverlay is available.
	Exit terminates the program.
