Cursor Data Window----> Configurable?

[Merc]

Hi good folks,

Is there a way to designate what info appears when the Cursor Data Window is activated? Presently it shows far more data than I want to see; moreover, the large window blocks much of the current candle action, making it difficult to conduct proper analysis. It also blocks the bar countdown.

Alternatively, is it possible to otherwise place the volume of the candle somewhere on the screen, similar to the way the bar countdown, range, and spread is pictured in the attached?

Many thanks in advance for your guidance!

As an update, I just found a solution:

Chart Setting--->Labels--->Cursor Volume.

Assuming that is the standard cursor data window that comes with MW, not a 3rd party one: You can grab it with the mouse and move it

Just for my knowledge, is it possible to have a third-party cursor window for MotiveWave?

I'm not 100% sure, but I would assume so? I have seen people program studies that show things like Range, IBR, Average Rotation, etc. and have it displayed on the chart in a window that looks similar.

@Spin would probably know for sure

I can confirm: if it can be pulled out of the DataSeries (or calculated with whatever data is available on the DataSeries) it can be printed to (a certain area) of the chart.

For more info what is available, I would point you towards the readily available numbers here, and I will add that pretty much any number from a MW-built-in or custom-coded Study can be plotted as well.

Finally, it is also possible to print 'numbers from outside MW' to the charts: I've coded Studies that pulled data from websites or out of .csv files and printed them on the charts.
Please note that the reverse is also possible: I have pushed 'MW-numbers' to Telegram and / or Discord or to a website, so if that is what you need, you would be able to code that too.

The SDK is JAVA-based, so it's pretty powerful when it comes to stuff like this.

Good lord, this was helpful. I disabled it on the lower intervals, but on the larger intervals it's no longer blocking the bar countdown: many thanks!!
