Version: 1607 pre-release

- create two chartbooks
- add one chart to both
- turn on chart dom on any
- switch between the chartbook
- switching back to the one with chart dom on makes the chart shifting left on all mouse move
- finally all the chart space becomes empty

I hope this helps.

Moreover, an Attached Trade Window (on the left side, OCO, etc) also diappears after switching back and forth between chartbooks where the chart has Chart DOM on.

We will look these over and resolve. There have been changes in this latest prerelease to destroy a chart window when it is not visible.

The cause might be different but using a custom study (dll) which I compiled with FreeDLL set to true for testing resulted in memory accumulation for the SC instance. As far as I can remember this was not the case in the past.
However, I did not put too much work into this. I mean the instance did not run long enough to conclude as it seemed that FreeDLL set to false stopped (or slowed?) this.

I can test it further tomorrow if needed.

Thanks

[...] destroy a chart window when it is not visible.

Question:
If I have an automated trade management study or other auto-trading ACSIL / spreadsheet on a chart which is destroyed when I switch to a different chartbook tab or a full screen chart (in the same chartbook?) then will it STILL trail or trade in the background?

Thanks

PS: I've just seen the new pre-release but I haven't tried the above
