Vertical movement of charts with the hand tool is causing some lag 0.5 - 3 seconds.

Moving with scale is working fine.

What do you mean by a lag? Is the chart not moving, or is it an issue with the data?

The chart is moving, but sometimes it freezes for couple seconds during the movement

only happens with the hand tool

**actually the whole chartbook freezes

This is simply a performance issue.

There is some related information here:
High CPU Usage | Inactive User Interface | Poor Performance | Long Time to Load Chart Data | Charts Reloading Often: 30.56 - Global Chart Values Tool / Global Cursor

There may be a lot of movement events from your pointer device.

Provide an image of the chart, by following these *exact* instructions:

Managed to resolve the with removing of the Symbol Display study from the affected charts (primarily TPO charts).


The Tools type text & stationary text are causing lag in charts as well

Everything about those studies and text drawings are as efficient as possible.


One thing to improve performance in TPO charts is to increase this setting:
