ACSIL: My s_UseTool Lines are drawing on chart during historical downloading...

My s_UseTool Lines are drawing on chart during historical downloading, therefore drawing in wrong places...especially when the studies are already on the chart and I switch symbols or whatever.

I thought this would be an easy job for:

if (sc.DownloadingHistoricalData == 1)
  {
    return;
  }

...and it does fix the problem. However, now they don't plot at all, when before they would plot all over.

Thoughts? Thanks.

Not really. We do not provide programming help. You need to look at your code and find out why the chart drawings are not being added. Apparently you are not making a call to sc.UseTool. There is no way that we could know this.

Thanks for the info, support. Eventually I tried checking sc.ChartIsDownloadingHistoricalData , which is worded extremely similarly sc.DownloadingHistoricalData but seems to have worked a bit better for my situation. I hope this may help someone in the future.
