I've written a test that attempts to modify one of the CustomSymbolSettings files while Sierra Chart is running. The file is getting written to but Sierra Chart is not reading the change. In Global Settings > Symbol Settings, if I select Update From Server it overwrites my file back to what it was before I changed it. However if I make the change to the file while SC is not running, when I start SC again, my change persists in the custom symbol setting. This is the behavior I would prefer while SC is running. Would be nice if this was possible as I'm working on a custom symbol that is dynamic, sometimes the symbols in it change. Going in and changing the custom symbol every time in Symbol Settings will be a pain, especially if there are many tickers inside of it. For now I may just close SC, do the changes the to file using some other method then start SC. Actually what I am seeing is I can make changes to the file while SC is running and they will go into effect after I restart SC, as long as I don't hit Update From Server.
