I'm simply trying to create another chart for a 2nd spread, of which an existing chart in the same chartbook also uses the same source chart causing the entire thing to flip out and constantly reload 2 charts continuously making it unusable. (Yes, I realize there are spread butterfly and spread 3/4 chart studies - that's not the point as it doesn't have anything to do with the type of spread I'm charting) Date Time Of Last Edit: 2015-05-18 04:10:31

You have an obvious configuration problem here where you have 2 charts of different time frames per bar referring to the same source chart.

Did you even open the chartbook or just assume it was that problem? Every single chart in that chartbook is using 240 minute bars. I'm well aware of the other problems it causes to have mismatched times with 2 separate references and that isn't it in this case.

We do not need to look at the Chartbook because we understand the problem. If it is not the timeframe per bar, then it is another dependent chart setting, like the Days to Load.

Nope, that ain't it either. You're assuming you once again to immediately know the problem and that the user is at fault. Days to load is 180 days in every single chart.

We are not understanding the purpose of the continued questions. There is some other setting then. And the answer is the same. What is your objective?

So what you're telling me here is that it's my problem, it's "some other setting," the software is without any problems, and that I should just randomly keep changing things until it stops trying to load charts in an infinite loop? Yes, the answer is the same: it's a bug; but once again you won't take ownership. You already know this section of the software is brittle and prone to problems, pushing it back on me isn't going to make that problem go away. |

Your response is puzzling to us. However, after contemplating it, we think that the reason for it is you did not understand what the help topic was explaining. We have clarified it. Help topic 30.3 explains that you need to set up another source chart which a destination chart can reference. This is the proper solution. Once again here it is: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/helpdetails30.html#h30.3 There is no bug here. You already know this section of the software is brittle and prone to problems, pushing it back on me isn't going to make that problem go away. No, we are not aware of this. The help topic only explains a scenario which can develop due to an improper configuration.The documentation has also been updated to explain the different chart settings which will cause a reload in this case.

I think the way you treat your paying customers is downright rude. You have this twisted attitude that users reporting issues are out to annoy or harass you in someway and that the user by default is wrong. What you fail to remember is that the users reporting bugs are simply doing it because they want to make the software BETTER and not necessarily turn it into their own personal feature catalog. Without users reporting issues regularly you're at the mercy of finding them yourself and potentially running into other issues down the line from people not speaking up when they should have. If every interaction is like pulling teeth the users will just not bother at a certain point and ultimately the product suffers as a result. I rarely ask for features and I regularly report outages and other issues the second I see them helping you to keep the software stable and reliable. When I report issues and am treated like crap over it its just straight up unreasonable. Some of us have professional developer experience in both approach and even the same languages the software is written in. We know how to report bugs and we know what is a user land issue and a software/vendor issue before reporting it. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2015-05-18 07:41:51

No I don't need a refund. I believe in the software and my aim is to help here. I am not the only one SC support treats like this - come on now be honest with yourself there has been a history of these type of exchanges with support and users. From the beginning of the thread you kept telling me it was this problem or that problem of which none of those were the problem and I kept reiterating that. Attitude goes both ways here and you need to have a better perception of those users who just want selfish changes and those users who are here because they believe in the product (which I do).
