hello, i was curious and couldnt find anything about if a chart window is using data and or computer resources when it is minimized. example: a chart with a DOM/market depth window detached but is minimized. ex 2: charts in your chartbook when your chartbook is minimized.

i always assumed if my cb is minimized the charts in there arent using as much resources.

any info would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Yes, a minimized chart, uses much less CPU time. Close to 0%.

You can actually observe this in the latest prerelease. Update to the latest prerelease:
Software Download: Fast Update

And then go to a chart and open Chart >> Chart Settings >> Performance.

Minimize the chart and then you will see the Average Calculation and Draw Time gradually go to zero.
