Note that the XPression project files should all be stored on the local machine. The Application specifically uses the following 3 scenes from the XPression project file:

  • FS^Chart ^Chart GRAPHS

  • FS^Chart2 Graphs

  • FS_^TABLE5C

  • FS^Chart2 Graphs

  • FS_^TABLE5C

Special Settings

There is a special setting that controls how XPression scenes are managed in the app. By default the IsSceneObjectReleaseEnabled value is set to False. It was introduced in build 1.26.4983. This disables the code that explicitly releases the scene COM objects when it no longer needs them. To enable this setting, close the app and then edit the file settings.ini in the folder C:\ProgramData\Bannister Lake\RFD-TV Finance XPression. Finally reopen the app. Enabling this setting has been associated with increased occurrence of the XPression software crashing.
