In the release notes for 2494 it states that: "The following ACSIL member variables are no longer supported: sc.ChartBackgroundColor, sc.UseGlobalChartColors, sc.ScaleBorderColor. They have been replaced with the following ACSIL functions: sc.GetGraphicsSetting(), sc.SetGraphicsSetting(), sc.SetUseGlobalGraphicsSettings(). These new functions provide a full comprehensive access to all color and graphic settings of the chart. Documentation will be added for these new functions as soon as possible." I would like to find out how to code the new functions prior to updating but can not locate them in the online documentation. Please advise. |

The documentation for these will be added in about a week but we are putting together an example now. We will post this in a few minutes.

Works great! Thanks so much. The issue mentioned in This Post does not exist any more, same custom study (re-compiled after upgraded to 2497).
