Metastock charts (graphics) do not display correctly

Been running metastock for some months, and just confirmed a problem, which by the way I had with an earlier stock charting program called Sharechart.

Symptom.
Open a chart in metastock for any index or stock.
Draw a support line at a level, say 11,000 on the Dow.
Now use the + and - (zoom in and out) buttons in Metastock.
The support line is NOT maintained at 11,000.
It moves all over the place, even disappears.

I have done EXACTLY the same on my Windows backup DELL PC and the problem does not happen.

There seems to be a problem with drawing graphics under Parallels.
Can anyone confirm, or provide a solution? esp. someone from Parallels?
 
Wondering if Parallels staff will give me some feedback?

I am wondering if Parallels will give me some feedback on this problem I noted with metastock and other stock charting software? ... this is a critical tool for me and I need to make a decision about what to do in the next few days.

Parallels 1, 2, and 3 have demonstrated the same or similar bugs.

I really thought it was resolved ... but no.
It is easy to recreate, and does NOT occur on a native Windows system.

Please help or tell me to give up ... at least I will know not to wait any longer.
 
Hello Lehmachr,

We have not tested Metastock yet so I can not confirm or provide a solution right now.
Could you please give a link for we could download demo?
We'll try to reproduce the issue in-house.

Best regards,
Xenos

Metastock has the bug after all

Further analysis reveals that it is Metastock with a bug.
(relates to choices used when overlaying ATR on a chart)
Parallels is off the hook, which is good and makes me feel better about my choice. :-)
 
Metastock 11

I'm trying to run Metastock 11 (monthly lease version) on Parallels Desktop 4.0, but it fails when I try to enter the serial number. Is anyone on MS 11 and working successfully?
