Ladder interface as default

[tryingtotrade]

How would I go about making ladder interface as my default when selecting a new market, is there any way? Only use that one, thank you.

Just use the pin button on the top right hand corner to keep it on top.

If I understand your question correctly, the answer is that after selecting a new market the default screen is the 'One-click' screen - you cannot make the 'Ladder' screen the 'default' screen, you have to click the 'Ladder' tab after selecting a new market to get the 'Ladder' screen.

Unless someone knows differently, you can't change the order of the tabs at the top of the screen, so the market is loaded into the first tab which is the 'One-click' screen.

The 'Features' option at the very top of the screen top allows you to select and/or de-select 'Ladder', 'Automation', 'Charting', 'Manual betting', 'Dutching' and 'Bookmaking' and when de-selected it would remove that option from the tabs. However, de-selecting the 'One-click' screen is not an option and there is no option to re-order the available options as far as I know.

It would be a useful little addition in the Features tab to be able to drag the options into a chosen order, but unlike my many suggestions, this update/addition is not going to make anyone any money, so if really should not have any time spent on it.

The only way I know to achieve this is to right click and select 'open on ladder screen', or use 'display a market on a trading screen' option in a rulefile to automatically open the ladder.

You don’t set it as a default, you would customise your screen layout. Then you save that custom layout, when you next login to BA , set the screen layout as (ladder) or whatever you wish to call it.

In short, click the arrow in the top right of the ladder screen. Adjust the ladder to how you want it, pin the screen if necessary, save the screen Layout, log out , on the password login screen > profile > screen layout (change to Ladder) > login.

Thank you but it seems it can’t be within the main interface but only in a separate window?
Usually new markets would be opened by Guardian, I couldn’t have the ladder opened automatically within the main betangel interface? Would be much easier especially when I have several instances running, the extra windows are overlapping.

tryingtotrade is wanting to have the Ladder screen display by default when a new market is loaded into the main BA screen (rather than in a spawned Ladder screen).

In the main BA screen, the One-click screen loads by default when a new market is loaded - you cannot have the Ladder load by default as far as I know. That's because the One-click screen is also used by other screens (such as the In-play Trader screen) as their default. Once loaded, it's necessary to then click the Ladder tab near the top of the screen, next to the left-most One-click tab and there's no way around that as far as I know.

keep trying!
