How To Share An Item With The Share Button
You can now share items from your TC2000 with others. If that person has TC2000, they will be able to open your shared item(s) in their software. If they do not have TC2000, they will be given the opportunity to download/subscribe in order to see what you are sharing.
You can share symbol lists, WatchList windows, scans, conditions, charts, chart templates, reports, even entire layouts. You will be given the option to share directly to Facebook or Twitter or copy the link to the clipboard. You can email the link to a friend, post on your website or post to your favorite social media feed.
Below is a basic overview of how sharing works. Other Share articles in this section of the Help files will walk you through the detailed steps for sharing.
