Phantom variable entries
-
Hi,
I am experiencing an issue periodically whereby phantom values are appearing in the variable tabs on blocks.
I am 100% sure they have not been typed in manually.
-
I cannot replicate, it just occurs.
-
What if it changed a critical variable value - i.e. My max number of trades or lotsize ?
-
It takes an age to open each block & clicking on the variable tab to find out which is the offending block.
I am just reporting what I am experiencing & appreciate that it's not giving much to go on in terms of being able to replicate the problem. But it has happened enough times over the past two weeks for me to post this message.

If you hover your mouse on the variable field and roll the scroll wheel, it puts numbers there - maybe thats the issue?

OK many thanks I'll keep an eye on that. It would be fantastic if that is the issue. Would really hate for something like that to cause doubt over my confidence in such a great product.
-
OK many thanks roar you are absolutely right.
Personally I cannot see a reason why mouse scroll would be useful here.
The ability to inadvertently change settings that could have a material impact on the EA is potentially huge.
Unless there is a really good reason that outweighs the risks I for one would like to see the ability to mouse scroll in these variable fields removed.

Yeah, I agree that is not very useful a feature - hope we could turn it off.

This mouse-wheel feature simply works over all input fields in general. I personally use it a lot, because I'm lazy to type on the keyboard. And I'm used to move the mouse away from such fields when I scroll
Most people don't have so many variables, but I see that there is a bit of horror going on when their number is so big. I remind myself to do something about this, but I also remind myself of other things
