Is it possible to give tabs a color or a name?

[brecki]

Hi,

I run 4 bots and there are more than 40 tabs open when BA has been logged to excel. It is often difficult to know which bot is for which tab, so my question is: is there a possibility to give the tabs diferent colors? Sure the color changes when the market is suspended, but if not it would be a great help to be able to seperate the bots from each other by coloring the tabs.

If this is not possible is there another possibility tzo seperate them, f.e. by giving them a certain name adding an additional headline ?

Thx.

The simplest way to implement this was to add a new special trigger. I have added "COLOR:". For example insert "COLOR:FF0000" in cell Q2 to change the tab to red. You should set up your worksheet to put this in Q2 whenever you want to change the color.

I am not doing an auto update at the moment so you will need to install by clicking here

The colour value is in hexadecimal. You can find these values on sites such as http://www.ficml.org/jemimap/style/color/wheel.html

Great job, Gary !

Is it a completely new installation when clicking on "here" so I first have to uninstall the current version of BA on my computer or is it just an add on ?

Yes, you have to uninstall first. Your preferences should be intact though.
