Hello Sierra Chart, I have a study that draws rectangles DRAWING_RECTANGLEHIGHLIGHT on a source chart as well as a destination chart. The drawings are drawn correctly, however, on the destination chart the Drawing Type (Manage Chart Drawings Window) is "Rectangle", not "Rectangle Highlight". As I am scanning user-drawn chart drawings using sc.GetUserDrawnChartDrawing() on the destination chart, the "Rectangle" isn't being detected as this isn't supported by "s_UseTool::DrawingType" (Using Drawing Tools From an Advanced Custom Study: s_UseTool::DrawingType). Are there any options to detect the "Rectangle" either through supporting DRAWING_RECTANGLEHIGHLIGHT and DRAWING_RECTANGLE_EXT_HIGHLIGHT on the destination chart or adding support for DRAWING_RECTANGLE in "s_UseTool::DrawingType"? Thank you
