Post From: Change behavior of Sierra Chart while loading data

On two charts, I am quickly rotating back and forth between timeframes.
I have a 5" chart I keep switching back and forth to a 3".
I have a 2" chart I keep switching back and forth to a 1".

This is purely visual. For milliseconds that are enough to get a headache given how often I repeat this process, charts go blank and a message pops at the center:

Loading: 0.03%.
Symbol.scid
Click to cancel.
[|||Loading Bar|||]

How to change the behavior of Sierra Chart so that instead, the loading proceeds quietly in the background? We get no visual cut. Only when the data is ready: the chart then updates in one seamless move.

If memory serves well, I was able to do this a long time ago. Can't remember how.
