Description

When I have a time chart plotting in real-time and i lose data feed connection and some time passes, when i reconnect the time chart loses whatever data occurred during the period when the data feed was disconnected. a volume chart will repopulate the new data correctly with no gaps when the data feed is reconnected. but as you can see in the attachment, time charts for whatever reason lose data. The missing data reappears correctly if the chart is simply copied and pasted into a new window. This is problematic for me because my custom indicators don't plot correctly when using the cut-n-paste solution.

Steps to reproduce this issue

plot a time chart, disconnect the data feed without closing down MC, then reconnect the data feed. this missing gap should be replicated on the original chart that lost the data feed.

The feature indeed works no only for tick-based charts. We tried to implement it for all other chart resolutions, but faced some negative feedback ( http://www.multicharts.com/discussion/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=45490#p98980 and http://www.multicharts.com/discussion/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=45491#p98996)) and postponed the feature for a future version of MC.
