There is extensive rework, of the management of chart child windows, like the Time and Sales window, and Market Depth window, and trade window, when a chart is hidden or when switching Chartbooks. This is in version 2865. Some additional work is going to be done as well. We will go into more details, but these child windows are always destroyed if the associated chart is hidden or not in the visible Chartbook, in order to minimize what are called operating system "User" objects. This makes Sierra Chart a lot more efficient. You will notice some amount of flicker and slight delay when switching between Chartbooks, but just understand that there is a major efficiency advantage in this. We will go into more details later. We can also support, a hiding mode for these child windows, but it does complicate the code. So we are not opposed to that, but until we get this development all finalized, this is not something something we want to do. And there is a disadvantage in this. 2865, also completes development, of the new Ask Volume Bid Volume difference market data columns. There are dedicated color settings for these columns and the diagonal calculations match Numbers Bars. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
