Centre Ladder rule?

I have recently started doing screen recordings throughout the days where I can't trade so I can review the days races in the evenings. One problem I can see is where there may be a big drifter/steamer it will eventually disappear off the ladder if it isn't centered. I've had a look and I can't see any rule for centering the ladder automatically.

I can't see any other reason why anyone would need to automate it so I don't think the rule would exist but I thought it was worth asking in the hopes I was wrong.

****EDIT****

For anyone who has landed on this and wanting a solution. As "to75ne" suggested, the best way is by creating a script to run on Auto Hot Keys. Here's how...

1. Download Auto Hot Keys.
2. Right click on your desktop, go to "new" and click on "AutoHotKey script".
3. Right click the file and click "Edit"
4. Delete anything already in the file and copy the following text...

#Persistent
SetTimer, PressTheKey, 120000
Return

PressTheKey:
Send, {Enter}
Return

5. Save the file. Double click it and it should run in the background. The "120000" number is the number of milliseconds it waits before pressing the enter key again. I have this set to do it every 2 minutes but you can change it to whatever you like (60000 per minute).

6. Watch as it creates a new paragraph every 2 minutes while you're on a forum and trying to explain to people how to create a script...

Your RIGHT .... it does nt exsist :)

For the reasons you have stated it would only be of use if recording trades, having it centre any other time automatically while could and would be disastrous.

Nope, it ain't automatic and can only be done by hitting the enter key!!

You could get round this by putting a heavy object on the enter key. If you hold the enter key it will centre the ladders everytime the price moves...

That will just freeze the ladders and you wont see any movement at all

Good idea! You can have Dallas' gold start that he so rudely rejected.

Dallas did not
rudely reject
He politely declined because cos he's too modest to accept all the medals he should get. :roll:
:P
