: : : : : : Hi Mark,

: : : : : : I've reinstalled 4.2 after my HD crash but now when I record a purchase, split or other event the markers don't show on the graphs. I've tried all I can think of in the Options/Color menu and also made sure that the markers are all turned "on". Am I missing something? Thanks for the help!

: : : : : Hi Wyatt,
: : : : : Do you have a graph type on that displays markers? Could you have the
: : : : : date range or scale set, such that you aren't seeing them? Do you see
: : : : : any markers?

: : : : : Thanks,
: : : : : Mark

: : : : Hi Mark,
: : : : Yes I have the standard Share Price graph on with the maximum settings, etc. The oddest thing is that the samples that came with the program show up fine. I dragged and dropped the samples into the My Data folder to use them in my own portfolios and then none of those markers show up - doesn't seem to make sense. Thanks.

: : : Wyatt,
: : : Are you opening the sample portfolios, or just opening the investments?
: : : When you look at "Options/Colors..." can you see the markers displayed on
: : : the sample screen?

: : : Thanks,

: : Mark,
: : I'm doing both. From the Start Program menu I open the sample portfolios and everything looks normal with the markers. But when I open any of my investments or portfolios I can't see the markers. In mine, when I look at "Options/Colors..." the markers like NAV splits, NAV purchase, etc. don't show up on the sample screen even though the color slides indicate that the purchase marker should show in red, for example. It just seems as though anything in the My_Data folder doesn't work and anything in the Samples folder does. Perplexing, huh? That's why I'm at a loss!
: : Thanks Mark.

: Hi Wyatt,
: This sounds like it is a color problem. Try this:

: Open the sample portfolio from the Start/Programs... menu.
: You should see the markers as you did before.
: Then, go open one of your investments with "File/Open Investments..."
: that is in your my_data folder. Do this without closing the
: portfolio. Do you see the markers on this new investment?
: If so, please try experimenting more with the color choices to
: fix the marker display.

: Thanks,
: Mark

Mark,

Eureka!! Tried your fixes with no luck. Finally tried Options/Screen Pens.. and found that all had been set to zero (don't know how) so I hit "default" and there they were!
Thanks again for your patience and your product just gets better and better. Couldn't be more pleased with an application!

Wyatt
