Re: MULTICHARTS .NET 9.1 BETA 2
On MultiCharts .NET64 Version 9.1 Beta 2 (Build 11616) I get the following chart when I use `IPlotObject.Reset()` on all bars between the two blue arrows:
Is this expected behaviour?
I thought that the behaviour would be different now (compared to MC .NET 9.0 Release) due to the following in the changelog:

Code snippet:• With IPlotObject.Reset() one can now remove historical plots.
Code: Select all
// Update plots
if (InRTHSession())
{
sessionHigh.Set(rthHigh[0], RTH_High_Colour);
sessionLow.Set(rthLow[0], RTH_Low_Colour);
}
else {
sessionHigh.Reset();
sessionLow.Reset();
}

Re: MULTICHARTS .NET 9.1 BETA 2
Hello JoshM,
The original behavior was not intended to be changed. For example IPlotObject.Reset(10) will delete the plot 10 bars ago from the current one. The plot is deleted but when Line style is used - it will connect the available plots. If you do not want to see the connecting lines between plots - you need to select a different plot style.

Re: MULTICHARTS .NET 9.1 BETA 2
As I have stated before quite some time ago, you need to add a new line style that allows only horizontal line. Yes you have the left and right tick style but that is confusing if you have indicators that are plotting on bar charts. You need to add a horizontal line style that spans the entire bar space and does not connect like a line line style does when its vertical location changes. When this horizontal line style would plot successive bars at the same vertical location, it would appear as a solid line. It would make a lot of on the price chart indicators a lot cleaner and less confusing to look at for the trader. Several of your competitors have done this for many years already and it is a superior choice over the limiting options we have in MC.Hello JoshM,

Please seriously consider it.

Re: MULTICHARTS .NET 9.1 BETA 2
I'm not sure if this has already been requested, but could `TimeSpan` structures be allowed as an input? We can already use `DateTime` as an input, but that gives weird inputs where people also can also set the year:
I'd personally much rather being able to define times. I think that's also more accessible for people new to MultiCharts .NET since it seems less odd than typing in year 1 and not knowing what that means or what the purpose is of it.

Re: MULTICHARTS .NET 9.1 BETA 2
Yes, I agree. I've been using time as an input quite a bit but so far never had a need for the actual date aspect of the datetime input.I'm not sure if this has already been requested, but could `TimeSpan` structures be allowed as an input?
