I continue to be running into brick walls with this platform. My initial attempts to connect to real-time and historical data through IQFeed have yet to produce a bar on the screen. In my troubleshooting, I found what I think is a bug and submitted it to the developer on github, link. I found this by using one of the sample projects.
Once I found this, I tried to implement the fix in the Studio and Hydra projects. These projects are not the same source projects as the .zip from StockSharp's website. When trying to run the Studio or Hydra projects, there are numerous Actipro license issues.
It appears that the majority of the focus is on the Russian connectors/exchanges. I would love to see more support for US/UK/etc but I think people will be slow to offer fixes for this platform.

After chatting with one of the developers, the projects downloaded from the website are in fact the same as the github source. It has been a license issue with ActiPro that has kept me from being able to use the debugger to step through Hydra or Studio. The Studio project is still in beta so I am focusing more on Hydra at the moment.
@Jasonnator, thanks for the posting and all your time on the phone today. I'm glad this was brought to my attention. In order to get IQFeed data to work with this platform, we have to enable the access through a back-end manager that StockSharp has created for us. I'm not 100% sure why they do it this way, but as of now this is how it has to be done in order to use IQFeed data with this software. If anyone is getting an error message or showing a pending approval when requesting to use of IQFeed data, just PM me your IQFeed user credentials and I will enable your access.
Thanks
James

@IQFeed James After chatting with the developer again, they no longer use this license so the approval appears to not be needed. There appears to be a bug in the platform which I am trying to track down and solve now.

I can't trade off of it yet since it's just one of the small, simple sample applications, but this is a huge step in the right direction! This is actual IQFeed futures data downloaded and charted. The developer beat me to the fix but it is being checked in regardless.

Now that I am able to get IQFeed data onto a chart, albeit in a small sample application, I moved back to the Studio project. Everything still compiles but I can't figure out why I only have one connector option, FIX
I thought looking at Studio/app.config would hold the answer but there are 18 connections listed there. Why is only the FIX connector making it into the SessionHoldersPanel.xaml/SessionHoldersPanel.xaml.cs???
