Account+ Window Toolbar

Near the top of Neovest's Account+ window is a horizontal row of features and icons that is referred to in Neovest as the Account+ window toolbar.

toolbar

The search features in this toolbar are designed to let you search for particular orders in your account that include a specific symbol, user name, reference ID, or destination. This search feature may be very helpful if a particular Account+ window contains a long list of orders and you wish to locate certain orders that are comprised of specific criteria.

Additional features in the Account+ window toolbar are designed to let you access a Neovest feature or window with a single click.

The following table describes the function of each of the features and icons in Neovest's Account+ window toolbar but does not explain in detail the windows that may be accessed by clicking on certain icons. As questions arise concerning any of the features or windows discussed in the following table, refer to the "Account" chapter in Neovest's Help documentation for further assistance.

As you click on the "Link Window" icon, the image of the link will change to appear either intact or broken. If the link appears intact, then the particular Account+ window's "Sym" (symbol) search criteria field is linked to other Neovest windows that are open on your screen; if it appears broken, then it is not linked.

All other open Neovest windows that are not linked to "All" or to channel "1" will not load the same symbol.
