I have four linked charts open and also use the QuoteBoard.
I use very few Studies (max5) and max 30 days loaded.
As a drawing tool I use mainly Rectangles. I have not deleted the Rectangles for a long time now (more tham 30 days).

When I started SC this morning, the system was very very slow. I mean really slow.

I have now deleted all Non Text Drawings and now it seems that the system is running normally again.
It seems that the drawing tools (rectangles) slow down the system. Am I correct and if so, how should I deal with this in the future.

Many thanks

Make sure the rectangle drawings do not use any amount of transparency. So the transparency should be 0%. Or 100%.

Currently they vary between 20% and 80%. The reason for this is that I see, for example, all the rectangles from M60 and M15 in M3, plus those drawn in M3. So far I have always controlled it through the transparency to better distinguish the "sources".

I suppose I'll have to recolor the fill colors now.

Many thanks
