Post From: Feature proposal : storing settings as clear text

Thanks for the heads-up about the dev team’s response on text-based configs and for sharing your experience!

I completely understand their focus on performance—Sierra Chart’s speed is a big reason I use it, so I respect their call to avoid changes that could slow things down.

As a potential workaround, what if they added an offline import/export module for configurations in a readable text format (like JSON or YAML)? It could let us edit, share, or back up settings without touching the core binary format used during trading, keeping performance intact.

I think this could give us the flexibility we’re after while aligning with their performance goals.

Curious to hear their thoughts about this suggestion
