Can you please describe the "changes" or "fixes" that this update addresses?
Also, can we get a break down of how much historical data I should be able to download using TS for each of the following:

Thanks,

Re: TS API update (Tue Mar 01, 2011)
Basic changes touched on better data requests from TS - while working with TS 8.8 or later, MC6 would sometime not be able to grab data. It would backfill infinitely, or data would simply not arrive. This was addressed in MC7. As for history, you should be able to receive whatever TS provides - i.e. whatever you see in TS you should be able to see in MultiCharts. MultiCharts does have a synthetic limitation of 5 million bars per chart, so not all data might be displayed, if you have more than 5 million bars. This was done to prevent users from running out of memory quickly.Can you please describe the "changes" or "fixes" that this update addresses?

You can change this setting in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TS Support\MultiCharts\Shaper\MaxBarsCount - value is 5000000 by default, you can change to 20000000 for instance. Be careful of possible memory overflow.
