Hello
Was there some modification done on The EL Collection and MC64. I'm trying to work on an old project started with MC32 regarding reading a csv file.
Now, I don't succeed to read the file. Receive an error, Can't find "elcollection.dll"

Re: How to make a chart stand out in a workspace?
I don't think that this could be coded. You could always do a chat session with MC to confirm https://www.multicharts.com/discussion/posting.php?mode=reply&f=1&t=48124# You could post a request on Project management about that and ask the community to vote for. https://www.multicharts.com/pm/ Martin

Re: Erase all drawing: Why does it erase the "Lock Drawing"
Did post on project management about that
I suggest to have MC ask "Do you want to erase this locked drawing object" before erasing them.
Again, if we lock them it is probably to keep them until manually erasing them

Hello
I'm using for the first time the function to erase all drawing and to lock one.
I think the "erase all drawing" should kept the locked one. If we locked it, it's because we want to keep it.
