Calculations in Container objects

Hi All,

Quick question.  When a chart object is minimized, I know it does not calculate until it's maximized.  For chart objects in a container, do the non-selected charts in the container still calculate even though its not active?   Unfortunately, the calc time in properties does not reveal any relevant data. 

Thanks,

Wade

Hi Wade,

as far as I know, all the charts in a Container get calculated, even the invisible ones.

Also, hidden objects that are not minimized, get calculated even when they are hidden.

I ended up not using Containers and duplicating my Show/Hide conditions as Calculation Conditions, to prevent all the hidden objects from calculating until they become visible...

cheers,

Oleg

That is what we are seeing from a performance perspective.  Thanks Oleg.  Long time no talk.
