Is there a way to use sc.ReadIntradayFileRecordForBarIndexAndSubIndex with 'Include Columns With No Data' enabled in chart settings? I see unexpected results using this setting and testing with 'scsf_ReadChartBarRecordsFromUnderlyingIntradayFileExample'.

We will check on this. In the case of bars which are inserted with Include Columns With No Data, this function should just return an error. We will make sure that is the case.

We checked on this, and for bars in the chart, where there is no actual data, the function will return 0.

Although we do see a problem where the example study function that uses this function, is not giving the correct volume number for the bar just before a period of time, where bars are included with no data.
