Hello SierraChart team-- As always, I absolutely love your software. I've created a number of tools using ACSIL to save time drawing things. For example, I've made a tool for each session that draws single prints formed during RTH or ETH, and updates them when price moves through them and mitigates them. Lots of fun. So in essence, I've got drawings generated by a study. Since this tool draws best on certain timeframes (I can't figure out where exactly the bug is, but it's there), I'd love to be able to have other timeframe charts of the same symbol copy the drawings from my main chart. For whatever reason, these drawings are not copied the way hand-drawn drawings are (for example I have these charts set up to copy drawings from the main chart, and if I hand draw a line, it shows up as it should on the other charts). Any suggestions for a workaround so that study-drawn drawings on one chart can appear on the other charts without having to run that study on the other charts? Many thanks Doug |

You need to set the drawings to be "User Drawn". Refer to the following: Using Drawing Tools From an Advanced Custom Study: s_UseTool::AddAsUserDrawnDrawing For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Thank you! Hmm, I already have tool.AddAsUserDrawnDrawing = 1 in the script, and it still doesn't show up on other charts, so my guess is I'm out of luck here...
