Sorry for capital letter in the subject, due to a paste/copy mistake.

Do not double post. Ask your question only once and only in one forum. All double posts will be deleted anyway so posting the same question multiple times will just be wasting your own time and will not get you an answer any quicker. Double posting just creates confusion in the forums.
Thank you 🙂
I deleted your topic in the General Trading Discussions.
Anything imported is considered a new item. If you delete an item or replace an item then it will no longer exist and so will be removed from all charts. If you have it applied to charts and want to keep it there then you just have to modify the code in the original indicator and then add the indicator. All the charts will then change to the new indicator code.
PRT version 11 or previous version please?
@Nicholas: V11.

Distributing the source code of the indicator is not the right way in this case: user could modify the code arbitrarily. Exporting the indicator in a protected way using platform options is the correct way, but in this case the PRT platform, when importing an indicator that is already present in the user’s collection, should keep links to the that indicator in all plans and charts which it was already referenced.
In my experience, distribution in all development environments that I know allows create and distribute upgrade of an object by simply replacing the old with the new at user place,
ensuring that object already used the old one work with new versione having nothing to do (backwards compatibility).
I wondered if, for some reason, I was wrong to use the export or import options.
