Sierra Chart auto upload screenshot to bmcharts.com
To answer earlier question - Yes, global would be great so I don't have to add it to each chart. But I really don't mind doing that, if global is a big problem.
So at this point my only real request is configurable key and to hide the menu bar along with title bar/status bar.
Thx again, you rock! This will be an enormous time saver!
This study, when added to a chart, will upload a screenshot to the chart to which it is added to bmcharts.
A url to the image on bmcharts is on the clipboard when the upload is finished, ready to paste into forum posts.

The shortcut key can now be chosen as a combination between a modifier (ctrl,alt,ctrl-alt,shift-alt,ctrl-shift) and a key (a-z,0-9,f1-f12). Default shortcut key is ctrl-alt-k.
Also, the menu disappears along with the titlebar if that options is set.
To install the precompiled dll, just overwrite the old screenshot.dll with the new (identified by build 2 in the custom-study list in sierra)
Forgot to do this, so will need to wait until after the close, again. My understanding is I can't replace the DLL without closing Sierra.
Also, @josh gave me a good idea - making the hot key the middle mouse button. If you could tell me where in the code and what to change for this, would be awesome... if it is not an easy change, then don't worry about it, I can live with the current hotkey just fine.
I don't know if this is along the lines of what you are doing, but I set my keyboard shortcuts in Sierra (Ctrl+G is evening session for example), and then I use my logitech setpoint software to map a mouse button to this keyboard combination. Logitech has suckily made it impossible to map certain keys, but I hacked the xml file for their software to make it still possible to do so.
