: Hi...Mark,

: The Portfolio Cost-Value graph is now redrawn very
: slowly. I have to watch the program redraw the value
: line across the screen. Did you tell the display
: driver not to use any acceleration functions for this
: particular graph? Other graphs seem to be fine.

Hi Gary,
In order to fix a bug, the way the value based graphs are plotted was adjusted. Here is the
situation... Normally, the value is based on
recorded closing prices. If you had a transaction
recorded after your last recorded price, the
value could be plotted incorrectly, not reflecting
this transaction. Now, FM checks for this, and
thus the drawing is slower. I tested this out
and the drawing speed seemed to be only slightly
slower, but it could vary depending on your
data. I will look into seeing if there is a more
efficient way of plotting this. It will be
faster if you have a closing price recorded for
more of your investments up to the ending graph
date.

Thanks,
Mark
