Post From: Subject: Crosshair tool doesn't re-activate properly on focus switch

I'm running Sierra Chart on macOS [Ventura/Sonoma , and I’ve run into a strange bug: When I select the Chart Values Tool (Alt+6) and use the crosshair, it works fine. But when I switch to another app and then back to SC, the cursor becomes a default arrow instead of the crosshair. Sometimes, the crosshair does appear correctly on return, but it's random — I haven’t found a reliable way to trigger it. I’ve tried automating input (keyboard/mouse), hiding the Dock, etc. — nothing consistently restores the tool mode. Restarting SC or the Mac doesn’t help. This behavior used to work — switching apps and returning would leave the crosshair active. Now it only works sometimes, or not at all. Could this be a bug with how SC handles macOS focus/app activation events? Any advice? Date Time Of Last Edit: 2025-07-03 02:20:23
