Hi User719512,

I meant subgraph draw style set to ignore in the dropdown. It is my understanding that a study with all subgraphs set to ignore should work exactly the same way as a study that is disabled (via the enable/disable setting). Unfortunately, not all studies have the enable/disable flag so setting subgraphs to ignore is the only option. Hiding only saves on GPU cycles.

I can't think of any valid use case for a study to be set to ignore and still have the ability to reference its values or even waste cpu cycles to calculate. For instance, a spreadsheet formula study should not even calculate the custom formula if set to ignore. All the countless moving average studies do not have enable/disable flag so setting them to ignore is the only way to reduce load on CPU (if you want to not use it but save it in your collection for future reference OR just turn it off during replay and then turn back on for visual analysis)

Having such "0ms" zero-weight studies allows us to create one universal 'baseline' study collection as a starting point to build all future study collections and eliminates the hassle of version control (for algo developers).

Frankly, SC should never allow a study without enable/disable setting and I have already proposed that in the past along with a new enable/disable flag for the entire collection... these are crucial to preserving compute power.

Edit: I always use the "Hide all" control button before the start of my high speed market replays.
