Changing plot properties without reload\recalculate indicator

[dodoei]

One thing I found rather annoying or inconvenient is whenever you bring up indicator window to edit an indicator’s properties like color or line width then click Ok\apply it reloads every indicator script in that chart window. Sometimes it can be slow with many indicators or computation heavy indicators. Sometime it can mess up things because by reloading it resets everything including global variables. So is there a way to not let the indicators reload by just changing line colors?

Curiously, although when you change the panel number that the indicator displays, it also reloads, but if you simply drag that indicator plot to a different panel without opening and editing in the property window, it does NOT reload. So there must be a process can edit plot properties without reloading?

Hello dodoei,

There is not a way to prevent indicators from reloading when changing properties.

Changing properties without reloading is not possible, but you change values through button clicks or inputs during runtime anytime you would like.

Having individual indicators reload is a feature request, tracked with ID# SFT-3190, and I will happily add your vote to this request.
