Edit : the title was cut: How to remove the "Historical Download Skipped" panel on a custom scid.
Hello,

I do calculations on a lot of stocks at the same time. The problem is that not all stocks have the same rhythm.
For example on my charts including the timefame in seconds, most of the stocks have trades carried out during this second, but some stocks do not have trades carried out for several seconds.
So there is an option to activate the filling of holes in Sierra (chart setting -> Bar Period -> Include Columns Whith No Data), this solves the problem of past holes, but not the trade holes currently being created. For example, if for the last 10 seconds there was no volume on the stock, then the chart will not move and fill this hole. It will fill this hole 10 seconds after the last trade.

The problem is that I am doing price derivative calculations, and therefore this calculation is blocked for 10 seconds because of that. Worse, Sierra extends the past into the future, which makes the calculation completely wrong.
Unfortunately, unless I'm mistaken, there is no option in Sierra that allows you to correct these holes being created.

So I said to myself, I was going to create a study that creates a SCID file that fills with the original stock (TEST.scid), but when there are holes being created, it fills them with a trade at volume 0 every second.
I did a test with a study test, and it works. To do this, I put its settings in the setting symbol (image attached).
I had to do several tests because there is no documentation of the symbol setting for a custom .scid.
After doing this, the new problem is that a sign saying "Historical Download Skipped" remains displayed all the time, right in the middle of the graph and does not disappear from the graph. The question is how to remove this perpetually displayed panel which bothers me when viewing the graphs ?

I also attach the log file:
