No button to insert image in the message text

Users with relatively low rating can not insert images in messages. No one knows for sure the level of this "low enough rating".

You cannot do this in the strategy tester.

Close the client terminal and clean the Tester\cache folder

What the reason is inside is not important.

What is important is that they reproduce it and fix it. The bug is old.

Reproduced and fixed

In the strategy tester, no way.

Close the client terminal and clear the Tester\cache folder

I closed the client terminal. Cleaned this folder. It's empty. Opened terminal.

But when I open the tester, the history is displayed the same way it was before. The previous image has not changed

 
Vladimir Karputov:

Thank you for the clarification.

Sorry, I sent it to the wrong place.

Attempt 2.

Closed the terminal, cleaned it. Reopened the terminal.

But when I open the tester, the history is displayed again. The previous image has not changed.

It is not clear.

You may have cleaned the wrong folder.

In the client terminal, in the main menu, select File - Open Data Folder. Go further - MQL5\Profiles\Tester - and see what is there

Can't you add a command somewhere in the strategy tester, so you can do it directly from the GUI?

Being in heavy development, it's quite annoying to always have to close the terminal and clear the folder.
