Post From: ACSIL control of chart bar period and days to load

Is there a way from ACSIL to control the number of days to load and the bar period of a chart?
I've tried doing it with the code shown below using a custom button but nothing changes in the chart.
None of the days to load or bar period parameters change in the chart.
I know the button is working correctly from message logs.
Also, I am currently using SC built in bar period buttons but want to add more functionality like number of days to load, etc.


ACSIL study code snippet:

n_ACSIL::s_BarPeriod NewBarPeriod;

// assign current chart parameters
sc.GetBarPeriodParameters(NewBarPeriod);

// change the parameters i want to change
NewBarPeriod.ChartDataType = INTRADAY_DATA;
NewBarPeriod.IntradayChartBarPeriodType = IBPT_DAYS_MINS_SECS;
NewBarPeriod.IntradayChartBarPeriodParameter1 = 1 * 60; // 1 minute * 60 sec/min

// Set the new bar period parameters
sc.SetBarPeriodParameters(NewBarPeriod);
sc.DaysToLoadInChart = 10;
