Post From: ACSIL: All methods to draw a rectangle that clips when intersected by price

Dear Support Team, I am considering the most efficient option to draw a rectangular shape at a specific event while ensuring it gets clipped when the price overlaps completely (the second time). So far, I have the following alternatives: 1. sc.AddLineUntilFutureIntersection() or sc.AddLineUntilFutureIntersectionEx() -- both functions facilitate the clipping, which is excellent, but they draw a line, not a rectangular shape. 2. s_UseTool -- handles the creation of the rectangular shape nicely, but the clipping needs a separate implementation by transitioning from the original Extending Rectangle type to the Rectangle shape type. 3. Subgraph/DRAWSTYLE -- I cannot find any styles that extend until price intercepts (the clipping described above), and I am surprised because plenty of types are implemented, so perhaps I am not searching in the right place. Can anyone help with a reference? Questions: 1. Are there any other methods apart from the above three? 2. Do we have any thoughts on the 3rd point, i.e. which DRAWSTYLE would be best suited? In summary - the aim is to draw a rectangle that clips when the price overlaps entirely at a later point in time. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2023-03-08 15:42:10
