This is the script for changing the timeframe of the active chart (this one changes timeframe to weekly)

Chart c = Charts.GetSelectedChart();
c.TimeFrame = 7;
c.IsHistorical = true;

I am looking for some help/hint to get something like the following:

If the existing Timeframe =1, then TimeFrame() =7
If the existing Timeframe =7, then TimeFrame() =31
If the existing Timeframe = 31 then TimeFrame()=90
Else TimeFrame() =1

Idea is to get one keyboard shortcut to toggle between 4 different timeframes.

Also could anyone manage to code which can shift from linear scale to log scale. I am told by QS that its not possible (may be there is no function available for scaling).

You can do something like:

if(c.TimeFrame==1)
{
c.TimeFrame = 7;
}
else if(c.TimeFrame==7)
{
c.TimeFrame = 31;
}
else if(c.TimeFrame==31)
{
c.TimeFrame = 90;
}
else
{
c.TimeFrame = 1;
}

Thats brilliant. Any workaround to create a keyboard shortcut to shift from linear to log and back?

It is not possible to change that dynamically unfortunately.
