[TradingView] Multiple Bugs
Posted: Mon Apr 24, 2023 4:48 pm
First off, let me tell you that what you've done with the TV UI is great! Well done!
As expected, there are some bugs with the TV implementation:
Note 2: TV UI feels more fluid and snappy, which is great! I hope it stays this way.
As expected, there are some bugs with the TV implementation:
- When you create a new backtest and then load your template from chart settings, they get applied to the chart correctly, but the settings dialog isn't refreshed i.e. it still displays the old settings.
You have to close and reopen chart settings to see updated values. - When the mouse hovers over the chart where there are multiple chart objects close together, all of their handles become visible. This is the intended behavior.
However, once you click on an object and select it, the handles on other objects stay visible. This should not happen; all of them should disappear.
To fix this, you have to click on those objects one by one and click on an empty area of a chart to make the handles disappear. - During a manual backtest when we step forward or when we change the time frame the chart snaps back to the right, just like MetaTrader - the leftmost bar on the chart has a fixed distance from the right.
TradingView lets us put the chart wherever we want on the screen and doesn't move it when there is a new tick or when we change the time frame. - Time format on the time axis of the chart is wrong. It shows "4:15" but we cannot tell whether it is 04:15 or 16:15.
Chart Settings -> Scales -> "Time hours format" setting has no effect.
This bug is also on the MetaTrader UI and has been there in the previous versions, too.
In addition to that, "Day of the week on labels" has no effect that I can see. - When you have Crosshair Tool active and you right click on the chart, the settings menu opens as expected, but the Crosshair Tool gets deselected (the pointer returns). Crosshair Tool should always stay on, until turned off.
Also since TV's Crosshair is just a visual aid rather than a measuring tool, and since we don't have the shift+click+drag measuring, we cannot measure anything right now.
Note 2: TV UI feels more fluid and snappy, which is great! I hope it stays this way.
