Bugs on build 5399 - Linux client

 

Build 5399 will not render chart scales, times, indicator scales or cross hair information on Linux.


Not on the official Wine 10.0, or any later versions (10.17, 10.18). Running through Lutris or similar does not help either.

While the official Linux build when downloading from https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/625?utm_source=www.metatrader5.com&utm_campaign=download.mt5.linux, is build 5370, within a few minutes the client will pull build 5399. Doesn't seem like there's a way to prevent this test build to overwrite 5370 at the moment.

So currently MT5 on Linux is broken.


Anybody had any experience either keeping 5370 or getting 5399 to fully work?

I am also struggling with graphics post update on Mac. No times, price or indicators. Extremely frustrating!

Build 5399 Bug(s)

In Wine, the registry specifies the full path to the font file, not just its name, as in Windows. This suddenly broke the fonts on the charts in beta 5399. The problem is fixed in beta 5402. Update your terminal to 5402+ when it becomes available on Demo if you encountered this issue in wine.

 

Any chance the forced update to 5399 can be disabled?

Seems like it's the real culprit in this situation.

I believe a new beta build with fixes will be available soon.

By connecting to the MetaQuotes-Demo server, you allow updates to beta builds. This has been discussed many times on the forum.

Can confirm it has been fixed with build 5403 that was pushed today.
 
There is still a problem with graphics and displaying letters and shapes in build 5403. I just updated live again, but the problem still persists.

Looks like 5404 was pushed today.

You're right, I hope the problems have been resolved in update 5430. I haven't been able to download the new version yet.
