is it possible to have a variable like sc.AllowDrawingOfGDIAlways to draw GDI drawings even when sc.DoNotRedrawChartAfterStudyReturns = 1, is ON
If drawing with GDI wrapper functions and with sc.DoNotRedrawChartAfterStudyReturns = 1 it dosen't draw, and with sc.DoNotRedrawChartAfterStudyReturns = 0 it isn't as smooth as when using native SierraChart drawing tools

so allow GDI drawings but do not redraw chart for performance reasons when sc.DoNotRedrawChartAfterStudyReturns = 1

Not sure we understand this, but either the chart is drawn in its entirety or not drawn. It is not possible to just draw Chart Drawings and not other parts of the chart. Everything has to be drawn together, at the same time.

Thinking about this some more, we think we understand what you are referring to. Sierra Chart built-in drawing tools, use an exclusive or drawing mode. This does not always work like with text. We would have to see how this would be possible to do from ACSIL. Not very simple and is not something we really can concentrate on right now.
