Hello, I managed to make my panel successfully. Thank you very much for your amazing tutorial.

Hello Vladimir,
first i also like to thank you for your great tutorial. I found a problem in using it in a template: Just put any of your applications into a template of an empty chart. After loading this template the application will come up twice like shown in the picture. Do you have any idea how to fix this?

Thank you in advance

Why is the panel/window cannot be dragged/moved past the chart boundaries?

What is the difference with Anatoli's easyfastgui library?
