Steps to reproduce
1) Open a building Block Strategy (ie: Simple Channel Breakout 50)
2) Run backtest
3) interact with various visualizers... equity curve, metrics, distribution
4) Change strategy values on design surface tab
5) Start new Backtest
6) Before back test completes, interact with visualisers
- change distribution metric drop box, zoom equitycurve, change scorecard, etc
NOTE: You may need to repeat steps 4-6 more than once to cause exception.
I have noticed a similar error caused by changing scorecards, zooming (or resetting zoom) on drawdown and equity charts etc. I believe it has to do with the underlying data being "dumpped" or binding object set to nothing or .clear during the new backtest ready for populating again. Suggest adding a safety that disables visualizer controls (so you can view tab but not intereact with components) until populated with new data.

I saw something similar to this with compiled strategies too I guess. And I guess this exception is from one of new builds.

Well it takes some patience and effort to cause this exception :)

This exception is like a good Easter egg - only takes 1/2 year to discover :)
haha... Not for me. I did my Masters in "Breaking Stuff"
While this is a legit report, I’d consider it a lower priority especially since Visualizers are potentially third party code. Let’s call it a known issue and stick to best practice of just letting the backtest complete before manipulating the Visualizers.
I mean, if I try hard enough I can even get Visual Studio to break.

That's entirely your call.
My "quickfix" suggestion would be to disable the container on visualizer tabs (Or the tabs) that hold charting controls while a BT is undwerway - and enable once complete.
This would prevent user interaction with the charts along with associated checkbox and combobox controls And, it would enforce your "best practice usage model"

I agree that would be the solution, we're already doing that for optimizations.
