I received a similar email. Did it work?So the response was to use the same analysis for all charts that are supposed to share drawings and use the visibility setting on studies to control on which timeframes these studies show up. Makes sense. I am now setting up my charts to see if there are any rough edges to iron out with this approach.
I mostly succeeded at this. Mostly being it all works except for what I believe to be a bug. See attached screenshots for reference - same drawings, different studies, sometimes shared (like VWAP bands).I don't think there is a way to simply plot drawings on grouped chart sets of the same ticker using different study on each chart. I have to stop trying this is driving me insane. will resort to charting composite too on a single chart in mw and I guess chart everything else with tos.
I tried the visibility but it changes visibility even across group. bleh
I would be *very* careful with this. In my experience it completely mangles volume data. The only problem it tries to solve is data loading speed, but the price is very high. I would much rather rely on number of bars / days for tick chart settings to limit how much data can be loaded.using the historical minute bar
You're right about the historical bar data but it seemed like it helped with the top study.I mostly succeeded at this. Mostly being it all works except for what I believe to be a bug. See attached screenshots for reference - same drawings, different studies, sometimes shared (like VWAP bands).
The potential bug is a very weird behavior, where adding more than 2 Volume Imprint studies to the analysis results in one of the existing studies to be deleted. It's really weird. Sometimes I will manage to get 3 VIs, other times just one. It genuienly seems to be some programmatic issue with how Analysis stores studies when multiple charts are open. At one time one VI study was deleted simply because I added a new chart, that had a VWAP study on it.

A few weeks ago I discovered another issue, which may be causing you some frustration unknowingly. Sometimes when you make a change to your workspace, some studies will stop showing. The study is still there, just not showing any graphs. I experienced another variant of this issue while using Rithmic. Sometimes the connection would be lost. After reconnecting, the missing data would be downloaded, which was clearly visible on bar charts, but studies relying on volume would not update. Forcing to update them required either changing the bar size or modifying something about the study. I developed a workaround process of changing bar sizes by 1 up then 1 down. I don't think this workaround is going to work in this new approach, that relies so heavily on the visibility setting, so now I am going with changing the tick size on my volume imprints by 1 up then 1 down. That "refreshes" the study, forcing it to redraw itself correctly. I access these invisible studies by using the Object Viewer (Option + V on a mac, probably Alt + V on Windows / Linux). Try it out - maybe your composite was there the whole time, just hidden... Support reproduced this issue and classified it as a bug already, so hopefully it will be fixed soon.
this is kind of a bummer since one of my fav imprints requires 2x imprint. was about to create another page/grid with this.I mostly succeeded at this.

I don't think it's an intentional limit. It really looks like a bug, where adding a new study sometimes erases a prior one. What makes me think it's a bug is how unpredictable it is.this is kind of a bummer since one of my fav imprints requires 2x imprint. was about to create another page/grid with this.
