Lost drawings after replay

I replayed a chart to it's end. My study added some drawings along the way. They are added as user drawn. When I subsequently draw a Volume Profile on the chart I lose all my drawings from the study.

I commented out the userdrawn capablility, adding a Volume Profile to the chart during replay makes the drawings added by the ACSIL disappear...

This is rendering the replay somewhat less then fully useful. Will this happen on live data?

Edit: Seems ok during replay and when paused when drawings are user drawn.

This all doesn't seem quite right. To be of maximum usefulness to me, the drawings should be on the chart until I choose to get rid of them no matter if they are user drawn or not, or whether the replay is running or finished...

Edit: Lost a user drawn drawing while replay is running... I'm having trouble defining the problem here but I really need the drawings to stay until I hit the Shift+Alt+L!

Edit: lost a user drawn drawing while deleting a volume profile drawing... The behavior doesn't seem to be quite repeatable, sometimes I lose the drawing the ACSIL draws when I draw the volume profile and sometimes I can have both but lose the ACSIL drawing when I delete the volume profile..

What is the LineNumber you are specifying for the user drawn drawings from ACSIL?

Are you leaving it at the default setting of 0 and letting it be automatically assigned?

I'm running the same study on several charts. The study uses a persistent variable that is incremented after each drawing tool use, that is local to each chart. Maybe it should be a global variable?

Are the Line Numbers negative?

no, they start at zero and increment with every drawing

OK we will see what the problem is. Clearly there is a conflict with the numbers used by the Volume by Price study drawings.

This is likely a user study issue.

When a drawn volume profile is added or removed, this is the equivalent of a study being added or removed. When this happens, your study will be recalculated from index zero. The same thing happens when you start a replay. In doing so, your study may be moving, corrupting, or just deciding not to draw prior drawings.
