'aiRightDispDateTime' issue is back in MC64 v10 release

Postby swisstrader » 01 Dec 2016

The issue MC-15852_x64 from the past [ aiRightDispDateTime issue ] is back in MC64 v10 release build 13557.
Is it possible to install the hotfix from January 2016 to fix the issue or do we have to wait for a new hotfix?

Thanks.

Hello,

The engineers checked the case on our end on the current release and it was not reproduced. Please send us the following information to support@multicharts.com: a screenshot demonstrating the issue, a workspace you are using and in PowerLanguage editor->File->Export->export with dependent functions the studies you are using in the workspaces you are providing. Please send us the study export file.

Your engineers have nothing checked! I'm really disappointed, always when you publish your release of a new version (v9, v9.1 and now in v10) you have compiled the same bug of command 'aiRightDispDateTime'. I've reported this issue in release v9, v9.1 and now in v10.
Just now I have substituted the two dll's named 'Charting.dll' and 'DataStorage.dll' of v10 release with the dll's of hotfix from January 22nd 2016. IT IS FIXED AGAIN! But this is not the solution.

I do not understand that your engineers always transfer one and the same bug into the final release.
All the beta versions are working fine, but the releases have the same bug.

In the attached rar file are the two dll's of your hotfix from January 22nd 2016.

Thanks.

Did your engineers reproduce the issue based on my sent DLL's?
I do not like to work in the v10 with DLLs of v9.1 (hotfix).

The release 2 did not fix my reported bug. I have attached a test code to reproduce the issue.
The DEBUG TEXT moves tick by tick to the left side of the chart window and jumps back again
to the right side of chart window.

FORMAT WINDOW | X-Time Scale | Settings | Chart Shift = 50

Many thanks in advance for fixing or supporting a hotfix.

I wish we would have the chance to review the issue in the 'Multicharts Project Management'.

The issue MC-15852 in the PM was deleted, no chance to add my report there.

Hello Swisstrader,

Sorry for the delay in responding. The engineers used the original setup (study, workspace) for checking that case and it was not replicated in version 10.0 release, that is why they could not confirm it as an issue.

I have forwarded your test script to the engineers for further investigation. As soon as I receive any information regarding the case I’ll let you know.

As for MC-15852, this ticket number is in our internal ticket system, not in Project Management.

I have the same problem.
All worked fine with displaying text to right of the screen in version 9.
In version 10, both releases, the text is not displaying correctly.
At first, it comes up correctly, but then it overwrites itself as the bars move on, and the result is that the text gets scrambled.
So, it's a bug.
I had to reprogram, the following statement display not correctly in ver.10:
text_setlocation_s(id.txt1,juliantodate(_rightest),datetime2eltime_s(_rightest),_highest);

Replaced it with:
text_setlocation_s(id.txt1,date,time_s,_highest);

which displays correctly, but not to the right as I'd like it, and as it was in previous versions.

Wrongly displayed / scrambled because of overwrite, text top right.

I should add, that I'm using point bars, don't know about other bar types.

Hello,

Please use the option "anchor_to_bars" for the drawings that are generated by the script.

text_anchor_to_bars(txt1, true);
text_anchor_to_bars(txt2, true);
text_anchor_to_bars(txt3, true);
text_anchor_to_bars(txt4, true);
text_anchor_to_bars(txt5, true);
text_anchor_to_bars(txt6, true);

Hello,

Yes, it was replicated with your test code. But it was replicated because of the fact that option "anchor_to_bars" for the drawings generated by the script was disabled.

In MultiCharts 9.1 option "anchor_to_bars" for the drawings generated by the script was enabled by default, while in version 10.0 it's disabled by default. Please enable it and it will work correctly.

Kristina,

if I've understood it correctly we have to add in all of our existing code the new attributes 'Text_Anchor_to_Bars' and 'TL_Anchor_to_Bars'
to solve the issue..

I did it in my code and the issue is solved now.

Thanks.
