Abbreviations used:
BM = Benchmark
SPY = S&P 500 ETF
TQQQ = 3x Leveraged Nasdaq-100 ETF
BTC.USD = Bitcoin in US$

1) We all choose different BM symbols appropriate for the context e.g. a crypto strategy may use BTC.USD, a stock strategy may use SPY (or SPXTR - S&P 500 Total Return), a leveraged ETF strategy may use TQQQ. It becomes difficult to keep track of them all. One would be easily reminded of the BM symbol if it was shown wherever its referenced - Reports, Drawdown plot, and so on - instead of having to click on the Strategy Settings tab to find out. Comparison of different BMs across multiple strategies will also be easier.

The BM symbol was *always* displayed in WL v6.9 and prior versions, like so:


It would be nice to have it back!

Hopefully the developers will implement these requests soon as they're relatively trivial.

Thanks.

Some additional points:
1) To save everyone the hassle of having to manually adjust the width, please make the Benchmark column in the Metrics Report auto-adjust to the new string length as its still defaulting to the same standard width as other columns and obscuring the symbol.
2) The Benchmark symbol is only seen in the Metrics Report, its still missing from other places - Equity Curve, Monthly Returns, Drawdown Curve, etc. (basically, everywhere else). It would be nice if it gets shown there also.
