Opening existing .cpp file in editor overwrites file with new file template

I am new to SC coding, and I found this behavior beginning yesterday or the day before: 1. Open an existing .cpp file via the menu: Analysis > New/Open Custom Studies File > select the file name 2. The file opens with nothing but the new file template containing the SetDefaults code. All the previously-existing code is gone. Checking in Windows File Manager, the old file has been overwritten. For instance, this happened just now to the studies.cpp file. I have a backup, so no harm done, but apparently I can't open or edit any existing cpp file now. I am pretty sure that it worked as expected (just opened the file) before. I upgraded to version 1422 today and it's still happening. Is there some other way I should be accessing these files? Thanks for your help. Bob. |

This will be corrected in version 1423. It was a compiler error causing this unexpected problem. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
