Loading same indicator twice in one chart hiding another.

[crokusek]

Hi,

Attached is a simple custom (fake) indicator that is assigned to a 1000 volume chart twice but only one of the instances is showing up a a given time after pressing F5 to Reload. The first instance is assigned as InputValue = 1, the second as InputValue = 2.

It draws on the both price panel as well as its own panel. The problem is something is preventing them both to be active at the same time. Press F5 will sometimes toggle it to the other one and sometimes even to no indicator at all as shown:

The NT8 caching mechanism looks like it is supposed to include the InputValue so not sure why this isn't working. Maybe I just have some parameter set incorrectly. Could someone give it a try to reproduce? Here is the test indicator:

Thanks,

Thanks, we could reproduce and isolated the behavior to the cast

// Line #91
Rectangle r = DrawObjects[tag] as Rectangle;

We are looking into why this is happening under NTEIGHT-10467. I will let you know if there is a temporary solution.

Hi,

This stack trace is hopefully the same location you found but just in case (it is happening in a different indicator): It happens < 1/1000 of the time calls to OnBarUpdate() so is probably some race/multi-thread/locking issue.

Thanks,
Chris
