Where should I report this MT4 Error ?

hi there,

I come across this error a lot..

See below image..


The MT4 coders just need to see if a variable name  already exists. (Text 8277 in this case)

PLEASE HELP!

regards,

If possible,post the code

There is no code, I just pick the rectangle tool and these pop up when I try to draw something.

PS: I use these a lot.. long history there..

is there a file corrupt? or hit by a computer virus?

I tried reproducing your error.

It says "Object name "Text 8277" is already used". Then why don't you use another name?

NO, computer is clean, Windows 10, runs good.

I've been seeing this error for many years..

Of course I do, I add random chars like "sdfdsfds" after the "Text 8277", but it wastes my time..  I have to fill all the values again..

Guys, Thank you all for the support..

But, plz try to understand the topic of the thread.. I'm not looking for a solution to this problem from fellow members..

I'm trying this error reach the coders who wrote MT4.. This is a BUG inside MT4.

Hope you understand!

that whats I do, I draw tens of such lines and boxes everyday, it's tedious to change the name.. I'm a small time coder, it only take a tiny change in the code to fix that.

i suggest that you search codebase. Maybe there is a script that automaticly adds a unique name to new objects.
