Confirmation dialog before deleting any object urgently required
02 Sep 2020, 12:38


I have been using cTrader for years now, and I am still missing a security feature that is standard with all good user interfaces: Help users prevent data losses by accidentally clicking on the "x" of a chart, for instance. This can happen so easily, especially when you are mouse-scrolling in multi-chart mode, because there is no way to use the keyboard for easy scrolling right or left. The "x" is always dangerously close to the other symbols on the right side of your chart header line. How often has it happened, that I inadvertantly deleted a chart and lost all my drawings!

So please make your cTrader interface more secure by popping up a small confirmation dialog after the user clicks any x symbol. If you automatically put the dialog focus on "yes", all the user would have to do is pressing return on the keyboard if he/she really wanted to delete the object. This is Windows standard, and there are many other interface oddities in cTrader that could give your interface a better Windows look and feel. But this is a topic for some other suggestions. So far, using your cTrader interface has been like walking over raw eggs. Please improve!
