Annoying Modal Window

[wuolong]

When NT is loading up, or when it is saving data, the information window stays above all the other applications and cannot be minimized or hidden. Specially for saving data message window, for some reason, it will not quit sometimes. I have to kill the whole application and open back up to get rid of it.

In these scenarios, since no user interaction is required, it may not be appropriate to use modal window. Or is it possible to just display this kind of message in the status bar, or just let it happen in the background silently.

Is it possible to change this behavior in NT7? Thanks!!

Hello wuolong,

Thank you for your post.

You're referring to the splash screen at start up, correct?

[wuolong]

Yes, and also the splash screen for "Saving, this request cannot be aborted", the title is "Please wait...". For some reason, this screen tends to hang there forever until I kill the whole NT completely.

Thanks, Kyle.

Hello wuolong,

Thank you for your reply.

If you give the window enough time, does the process complete?

Hi, Kyle,

I am not sure how much time I should wait to act But like today, it hung there for 3-4 hours, and finally disappeared after I switched to different symbols a couple of times .

Thanks!

Hello wuolong,

Thank you for your reply.

I would still like you to provide me with the log and trace files via a separate note. I suspect this is a performance issue, you might try applying some of the tips listed at the following link to see if they improve the load time: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...rformanceTips1
