    Can only start drawing objects to the right of current bar!

    Hello,

    Something weird just happened today, and I don't seem to be able to fix it. On one of my charts, I can only place drawing objects, starting to the right of the current bar! I know that sounds weird. I will try to explain. For example, I use F2 to draw a standard line. I click somewhere on the left of the chart, the start of the line appears to the right of the current bar, but at the correct Y co-ordinate, and draws the line to my cursor position on the left. The same is happening for all the other drawing objects I tried. Starting x co-ordinate cannot be left of the current bar, and if you click to the left of the current bar, it starts at the current bar.

    I can probably rebuild this chart from scratch and perhaps this would resolve, but its a task I'd rather not do and I'll probably not get it 100% back how I want it first go (and a giant waste of my time). I am hoping you can say, 'that can happen because of xyz, etc' and lead me to an easier fix! Please note, this is the only chart affected. I can draw objects on my other charts OK.

    I have tried a re-install, just in case. No difference.

    I hope this all makes sense.

    Thanks.

    There is no obvious root cause based on the information you've provided. There must be something unique about the single chart affected that we need to discover.

    Please provide a screenshot (even better, a video) of the behavior you're describing? I like to use Jing as a quick and easy way to record and share screenshots and videos.

      Very strangely, and despite me already having tried a reboot, re-install, etc., earlier today, it has simply started working again. I am not sure at what point, but I have not changed a thing! This is the first time I have seen this behaviour. If it happens again, I will do a short vid and post it. For now, it seems I am OK again.

        This issue has returned. I am going to email you a video... This was using f2 with the standard line drawing tool
