It is hard for us to give a definite answer on this because we don't really know exactly what type of lines are being drawn and where they are anchored in the source chart. This is definitely not something we would analyze.

We did have a close look at how the mapping is done between the time frames and we do not see how we can do any better. It is as good as can be. Refer to this section here about this:
Lines/Rays or Other Chart Drawings Move After Drawing Them: Chart Drawings Are Misaligned After Changing the Period / Timeframe Per Bar

The proper solution for what you want to do is to draw the lines on the shorter timeframe chart and actually make sure the anchor points of the drawing are set on those particular chart bars where they are not aligned to currently. This ensures they will remain stable at those particular locations. Otherwise, it is inevitable there is going to be a variance when you are doing copying between time frames.
