2195 Release Date: 2020-11-11

New setting in Customize Chart/Trade DOM Columns called Use Size Suffix. When enabled for a column, the size data for that column will be displayed using the Large Integer with Suffix format.
New Input on Market Depth Historical Graph named Automatic Combine Increment Adjustment Value which, when set to a value greater than 5, will allow the Market Depth Historical Graph to automatically combine/disjoin increments as the chart scale is changed.
The return type for the following ACSIL functions has been changed from a double type to SCDateTimeMS. Previously this was not done when the new integer based SCDateTime/SCDateTimeMS were released since using these types as a return value would lead to an invalid return value when using other compilers other than Visual C++. We have tested again with the compiler used for the Sierra Chart Remote Build functionality and do not observe any problem with this. So we have now changed the return type to SCDateTimeMS. It was necessary to make this change because there is a small degree of floating-point error when using a double type that would lead to a time value being off by a microsecond which can cause a problem when that is not expected. Therefore, any ACSIL study which uses these functions needs to be recompiled for version 2195 or higher. If the study is not recompiled, then the functions will do nothing and add an error message to the Sierra Chart Message Log.:

sc.GetStartDateTimeForTradingDate, sc.GetTradingDayStartDateTimeOfBar, sc.ConvertDateTimeToChartTimeZone, sc.DateStringToSCDateTime, sc.AdjustDateTimeToGMT, sc.TimePeriodSpan, sc.TimeStringToSCDateTime, sc.DateStringDDMMYYYYToSCDateTime, sc.CalculateTimeSpanAcrossChartBars, sc.GetEndingDateTimeForBarIndex, sc.GetEndingDateTimeForBarIndexFromChart, sc.ConvertDateTimeFromChartTimeZone, sc.ConvertDateTimeFromChartTimeZone.
Continued development related to downloading historical market depth data.
