My add-in Zones drop out when re-activating them to rewrite them or other reason. The window has no zones then. The only way I can get them back that I know is exit the program. When I restart Sierra Chart the Zones all write okay.

Is there a way to rewrite one window to get the Zones after they have disappeared? Can one window, as a trading window, be reloaded as if it were started with the starting program?

We really do not know what you are referring to. Are you referring to a study added to a chart?:

Can I reset a Window that has a study that plays a text file to draw zones on a chart? The only way I know to replay the text file to draw the zones is re-start Sierra Chart. I would like to redraw the zones without having to re-start the software.

Yes what you can do is go to that chart and select Chart >> Reload and Recalculate:

Thank you. But that did not reload the window as it is set up when the program starts. Here are two lines of the text file that writes the zones:
4740.25,4743.25,R,Normal
4731.75,4733.75,R,Normal

What can I do to get the zones re-written without re-starting the program?

It sounds like you are using a custom study, therefore you would need to figure out why these items are being removed and not redrawn. We simply do not know.
