Am I correct in thinking that ASCII mapping of data isn't done on a live basis. ie. when the file is updated MC doesn't do any automatic refreshing?
Also, it would appear, you can't do a manual refresh either. You have to re-open the chart?
Thanks
ASCII Mapping Not Live?
Interesting. While I was playing around with the mapped ASCII data (and this is on the new beta version), MC totally messed up all my charts in my open workspaces and then crashed! We're talking spectacular crash here where it also forced windows to shutdown with a count down timer. Unfortunately it happened so quickly I could note it all down. But it mentioned QuoteManager had problems with RPC.
When restarting MC all my workspaces were messed up. Most of the charts had window borders but nothing inside them. These were all on regular data, not mapped ASCII which I only had on one chart. In the end I had to delete the workspaces and recreate them!

When a mapped file is updated MultiCharts refreshes data automatically only if 1-minute, N-minute or 1-day resolutions are used. If N-tick, N-volume bars, weekly, monthly and yearly resolutions are used, data won't be refreshed on the charts without reopening.Am I correct in thinking that ASCII mapping of data isn't done on a live basis. ie. when the file is updated MC doesn't do any automatic refreshing?
