The gain ruler tool is remaining active across different strategy charts using a particular sequence. To recreate:
Open a C# strategy, set the scale to one minute and use one symbol. Run a back test.
Open a second C# strategy (not the same as above), set the scale to one minute and use the same symbol you used for the first strategy. Run a back test.
For the first strategy, go to the back test positions and double-click a position to display it on the chart. Draw a gain ruler.
For the second strategy, go to the back test positions and double-click a position to display it on the chart. Draw a gain ruler.
Go to the first strategy, go to the back test positions and double-click some other position (different than the one you first picked for that strategy).
Draw a gain ruler on the first strategy's chart.
Go to the second strategy, go to the back test positions and double-click some other position (different than the one you first picked for that strategy).
Draw a gain ruler on the second strategy's chart.
Go to the first strategy's chart. The gain ruler tool is still active.
Its a pretty minor inconvenience, but I thought I should let you know about it. Its hard to recreate, and it seems to be related to selecting (double-clicking) a second position of each strategy.

Are you just saying that something you draw for a symbol/scale appears for that symbol/scale later in another window? Because that's by design.
Each symbol/scale caches one set of drawing objects. However, you won't see new drawings appear immediately in another window until the chart refreshes.
Let me know if you're seeing something different, and we'll look more closely.

This is a feature not a bug, drawing objects persist by symbol and scale.
I understand that drawing objects persist by symbol and scale. That is expected. I'm talking about the gain ruler tool itself being active when it probably should not be active across charts. In a nutshell, the gain ruler tool is remaining active, given the sequence I described, when it probably should not remain active.
I see what you mean, I'll take care of this.
This is still broken in build 27 in case it may have been overlooked.
I just spent about 10 minutes going through the process but couldn't get this to happen at my end. I may be missing a step?
QUOTE:I don't even know why this is a problem. If you draw on a chart, the drawing will be there forever until you delete it.
Go to the first strategy's chart. The gain ruler tool is still active.
You said, ".. is remaining active, .., when it probably should not remain active." But since you never delete one in your sequence, we maintain that it should always remain active for the symbol/scale until you delete it. And not just the Gain Ruler - ANY manual drawing object.
The problem is that the "selected" state of the drawing tool button remains active and another unwanted drawing object is drawn on the chart when you wouldn't expect it. I was able to reproduce it before but so far cannot any more.
Okay, thanks. Now I understand. "Button" was the missing keyword for context.
Cone - from Post #3 of this thread:
The problem occurred multiple times today. I was finally able to recreate it repeatedly as follows:
Run two different strategies.
For each strategy, randomly select a resulting position and double click it. Of course, for each strategy the chart appears. Make sure you leave each strategy on it's chart tab.
Draw a gain ruler on the first strategy. Go to the second strategy. No problem.
For the second strategy, select the Strategy Settings tab.
Go back to the first strategy and draw another gain ruler.
Go to the second strategy, and select the chart tab. The gain ruler tool is active.

Thanks, that was it. Resolved for Build 28.
yah, I got it immediately when Glitch said the button was active. Go figure.
