It is this sc structure member which was incorrectly changed:
float PointAndFigureXOGraphDrawTypeBoxSize = 0.0;

It was changed to:
double PointAndFigureXOGraphDrawTypeBoxSize = 0.0;

When it should have been changed to this type:
t_ChartArrayDataType PointAndFigureXOGraphDrawTypeBoxSize = 0.0;

t_ChartArrayDataType is currently defined as a float.

So any structure members that your custom study uses after sc.PointAndFigureXOGraphDrawTypeBoxSize will not function correctly. It will lead to instability and a malfunction.

At the right time, t_ChartArrayDataType will be changed to a double. And at that time Sierra Chart will be updated to not execute a custom study function from older versions which were compiled in versions where t_ChartArrayDataType is a float.

The solution to the problem is very simple, simply just recompile, your custom studies when updating to version 2921 and higher.
