Does a hidden study take up resources?

Hi,

I imagine a study takes up resources when it has to draw in real time, so am I correct in assuming that if it is hidden then it won't take up any significant amount of resources?

Thanks

Refer to High CPU Usage | Inactive User Interface | Poor Performance | Long Time to Load Chart Data | Charts Reloading Often for optimizing Sierra Chart performance. Under section 30.1, the documentation states: "Even when a study is set to be hidden, it will still be calculated and does not eliminate the calculations. Although it does eliminate the graphics processing if it is on a visible chart."

Yes that is the relevant information. Graphics processing is significant.
