6.5 Problems and a request

[marketguy2]

Drawing fibs isn't working as it should. I drew one fib - no problem. I drew a second one that overlapped the first. It dragged my screen and then compressed my whole price panel, freezing NT for a long while. It has happened more than once so is a repeatable problem.

Also, it would be great if their was a way to lock in a horizontal line. They are way to easy to accidentally move - which I have done several times when I was trying to click the new arrow at the top of the price panel to move back to current time (which by the way is a great addition).

Thanks,

Bryan

Thanks for the suggestion.

The behaviour you experienced is due to the "Autoscale" property on the fib drawing object enabled. If you double click on any fib drawing object, you can disable the "Autoscale" property.

That being said, the compressing of the price panel is expected behviour since when moving the fib object you are increasing the range between the y min and max values but it should not lock up the application.

If you by chance see a way to reproduce the lock up, I would appreciate step by step instructions to reproduce.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Bryan !

Tried to reproduce, didn't find a problem.

Could you please provide me with the following informations:
- on which fib. tool(s) does this happen ?
- does this happen on draw a new object or on move the object ?
- in what situation does this happen (move on edge etc.) ?
- best would be, to provide us with a screenshot, just before lock up happens, which reproducable steps what you will do afterwards, to produce the lock up.

Screenshot answers & screenshot best to:

Thanks,

Problem corrected

Christian,
Ray was totally correct. When autoscale is turned off there is no problem. Definite problem with it on for me - so I have permanently turned autoscale off for Fib retracements, extensions and Andrews Pitchforks.

Problem only occured when drawing two fib retracements with same axis point. There was no problem drawing one fib retracement. And it occurred only when Autoscale was checked.

Thanks,

Bryan

Hi Bryan !

Again, I tried hard to reproduce this error, without success.

I would really be extemly helpful if you could provide me with:
- screenshot, just before the lock up happens
- reproducable steps to get the lock up

Thanks,
Christian
