Using SC version 1418, I have SC disconnected from the feed. It is not downloading data as far as I can see.
I refresh and recalc the chart and am getting that sc.ChartIsDownloadingHistoricalData is always 1.

Update to version 1419.

Not sure why you had this condition. But we do not think you are going to have it in 1419.

We do not observe a problem with this.

And we can see no reason why it would occur.

  }

  int IsDownloading = sc.ChartIsDownloadingHistoricalData(sc.ChartNumber);
  SCString MessageText;
  MessageText.Format("Downloading state: %d", IsDownloading);

  sc.AddMessageToLog(MessageText.GetChars(), 0);

}

I don't know what to say
I had this code

if (sc.ChartIsDownloadingHistoricalData)
return;

which compiles without warning

OK, make sure you use as a function.

That will solve the problem.
