Tick Chart Bug - Extended Line Anchored on Current Bar Moves By Itself.

[benjamin$]

When using tick charts if you anchor a drawing (extended line) to the current bar that anchor will move by itself. If you anchor a line into the future when the current bar reaches the x-axis for that line anchor the line will begin to move by itself.

Hello benjamin$,

I'm not able to reproduce this on my end when I test it. After I apply the Extended Line, I double click it to open its properties menu. Then click 'Data' and make a screenshot of the Start/End Y values. When I check these values later on, they remain the same.

Could it be the scaling of the chart itself shifts when you experience this behavior? Please see the limitation below in regards to drawing objects when applied in multiple charts with different intervals.

Please note that it is as expected that the drawing objects are distorted in different charts. Drawing objects are drawn as per its anchor points. If you double click the drawing object to open its properties menu, you will see its anchor points under 'Data'. These should be the same in all charts.

If you look at the price scale of the drawing object, it must be exact for the anchor points to align in the same place on each chart. The anchor points for the drawing object remains the same, but the scaling of the chart itself has shifted. This causes the drawing object to appear not identical.
