With any command selected there is a delayed response - a lag of between 1/2 a second and 2 seconds. A sticky mouse. The mouse works perfectly with any other function on the computer but only with sierra charts there is a delay. Computer is new with clean install. Intel core i7-10700K CPU, 64 bit OS. So for simple example: click crosshair tool then wait for one second before it becomes useable.

This is a performance issue, refer to this help topic:
High CPU Usage | Inactive User Interface | Poor Performance | Long Time to Load Chart Data | Charts Reloading Often

Are there a lot of chart drawings on the chart? You can check in Chart >> Manage Chart Drawings window. A lot would be hundreds.

Many thanks for your reply. Yes, I aggree the problem would seem syymptomatic of performance. However, I am using a brand new trading computer which I have only just fired up with sierra chart. As such I am only running six charts to get started. I attach the computer spec which ought to more than satisfy the ability to run sierra software. There are minimal apps working in the background and minimal apps installed - the main , higher impact apps are microsoft office 365, edge and firefox. Security is Kaspersky total security. There ought to be more than adequate performance cpability.
