indicator refresh

[dtl-saw]

I have a chart with several indicators on it. It seems that all indicators on the chart are refreshing after I change a parameter in one of them. Some of the indicators take a few seconds to refresh and it's very unsatisfactory to have your chart freeze for 6 or 7 seconds after changing the period of an EMA indi that would refresh in less than a second. A freezing chart with a position on is not enjoyable. Is there a way to prevent all the indis on a chart from refreshing and only refresh the indi that just had a parameter change?

Thanks

Hello dtl-saw,

That is correct, clicking OK will refresh all indicators on the chart so that these may recalculate its values with historical data using the new parameters.

There is not a way to change the parameters and prevent all scripts from recalculating.

I am happy to submit a feature request on your behalf to allow scripts to be reloaded one at at time. Once I have a tracking ID for this request, I will forward this to you for future reference.
It is up to our Development department to decide if and when a feature request will be implemented.

Curious, are you running indicators with Tick Replay enabled? I can add 30+ indicators to a chart and it takes but a split second for it to be applied.

Oh, that's too bad.
Please submit the feature request.
Thanks Chelsea.

Yes, tick replay is enabled and I have secondary data series loading as well.
If all I want to do is to turn off the visibility of an indi, I shouldn't have to wait for all indi's to recalc.
This behavior is prohibiting me from loading all my stuff on one chart and enabling or disabling analysis that is relevant at the time.
