Post From: SC hitting some kind of windowing resources limit

I have the problem where if you open a moderately large amount of chartbooks and charts or doms (which are really charts in sierra chart)

then parts of the window will stop being drawn of the latest opened chartbook... like missing chart trader windows... like maybe they open on 2 charts but not on the other 3.

?

also sometimes it will hang the whole program - opening the last chartbook.

We are talking here like 10+ chartbooks with maybe an average of 5 or 6 windows (charts, doms, T&S) per chartbook

It's some kind of lack of resources... however I have plenty of RAM available and anyhow SC is only using about 500-600mb at this stage - on the 64bit version.

and I can't imagine that SC is using up all the window handles available to it since that limit is astronomically high I think.

I can partially solve this problem by opening another instance but if I'm live I think that would require an extra login and all associated exchange data fees duplicated as well, at least if it is CQG

Is there any way to configure SC to allow usage of more resources or anything like, whatever causes this problem?
