Rectangle vanishes

[bukkan]

hi,
the indicator is to draw a rectangle for a certain timeframe and draws the same. but while scrolling (in lower timeframes) the rectangle vanishes at certain points.

is it a bug or I am missing something.

see video for details. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pI0_HUN-HQ0

also attached the code.

thanks in advance.

regards

Thanks bukkan, any errors in the log tab as it vanishes from the chart?

thanks Bertrand for the prompt reply.

Opened NT in the morning, loaded the indicators and replicated the issue and closed NT. sending you the log file for the entire process for your perusal. nothing in the trace file also.

bukkan,

Development has informed me this is due to your anchor points for the object being very far apart. This is unfortunately a limitation at this point in time.

To follow up, internally, draw objects are managed in collections that span varying data ranges. This is for optimization in rendering. The downside is that in the event that your anchor points are managed in two collections not adjacent to each other, its possible that if whats on the screen is covered by the draw object collection in the middle, it would not be rendered. As Josh pointed out, this is a current limitation.

Thanks Josh/Ray for the clarification.
