Save Template (RadarScreen, OptionStation)

The purpose to saving a template is to provide you with the ability to use a template that you have customized and use for future RadarScreen pages. By saving a template, it prevents you from having to recreate the desired style you prefer for the page.

Saving a template is useful when you want to expand the look and feel of your RadarScreen page and OptionStation Analysis window beyond what the default and predefined templates TradeStation has to offer.  

1. Make the necessary changes to the RadarScreen page or OptionStation Analysis window by using the format page or format window dialog and/or applying an existing template.

 Access using the menu bar Format > Save Template menu sequence. The Save Template dialog is displayed.  

Template Name  

• Enter the desired name for the new template in the Template box.

Existing Templates  

Contains a list of predefined TradeStation templates and additional templates that have been created.

• Optional. Select the desired template to override the existing template settings with a new template name. If you select a template, an overwrite dialog will be displayed. Once you override an existing template's name, you can not restore the original template unless you reinstall the TradeStation platform.

Set as Default - Check this setting to apply the selected template as the default template for all future RadarScreen windows.

 Click OK to apply changes or Cancel to exit without changes.
