For a multi data series chart or a single data series chart with equidistant bar spacing set to "False":

I cannot copy and paste any drawing objects, neither works via menu nor via Ctrl-C / Ctrl-V. Same problem on both my PCs, one of them XP, the other one Vista.

Also NinjaTrader support confirmed that I am the only customer of NinjaTrader, who cannot copy and paste on charts with equidistant bar spacing. So I need some help.

(1) Is there anybody else with the same problem?

(2) Has anybody a solution to this?

Copy and paste works on NT 7 with equidistant bars, but not with equidistant bars set to "False". It works for all other applications.

I face that problem still from time to time. When I press the ctrl-v after ctrl-c normally looking for the trend channel parallel line in a minute chart, NT7b15 does nothing and sometimes it puts my chart in a hang state.
Support guy answered me with nothing else than you, but note his answer details on how to copy an object:

-first select the object,
-then press ctrl-c
-then click where u want to copy it to ¿?
-then perss ctrl-v

I also thought I was the 'strange' one.

Nope, this is different. I had Josh from NinjaTrader support log into my PC, and as soon as equidistant bar spacing was set to "False", he was n't able to copy and paste. To reproduce, take a multi series chart.

I think it might be related to country settings, the US still has a problem with the metric system.
