Hi,

Reporting a bug in "Load" button ever since it was introduced in the chart studies window. I am currently on version 2667.

Steps to reproduce this bug:

1) Select existing study collection (say 111.stdycollct) from dropdown and hit "Load" button. Then hit ok (or hit apply and then ok) to close chart studies window
2) open chart studies window again and now select another study collection (say 222.stdycollct), hit load button and then hit ok to close
3) open chart studies window again. You will see all the studies from 111 but with 222 displayed in the dropdown for filename. If I hit save-all, in essence I am overriding 222 with studies associated with 111... original studies in 222 are lost forever.

p.s. Another long running bug still exists which I have reported earlier: open study collection, add a new study, hit ok without saving. then open chart studies window and the filename of study collection in downdown is removed. This continues to happen for atleast last 4+ years across 3 new laptops and across windows 10 and 11 versions.

Workaround for both these bugs: Hit save-all button before OK every single time a change is made to the study collection (or even when no change is made to the study collection which is just bad).

This is definitely not reproducible:
1) Select existing study collection (say 111.stdycollct) from dropdown and hit "Load" button. Then hit ok (or hit apply and then ok) to close chart studies window
2) open chart studies window again and now select another study collection (say 222.stdycollct), hit load button and then hit ok to close
3) open chart studies window again. You will see all the studies from 111 but with 222 displayed in the dropdown for filename.
We see no such problem as described.

This is definitively not a bug!:

This is by design because the group of studies has been modified but not saved as a Study Collection, and the previous Study Collection name is no longer applicable to the current studies. This is very specifically by design! This is not a long-running bug at all. And we will never accept that. It is simply factually untrue.
