Chart drawings not showing up but aren't

Is there any reason why my chart drawings won't show up on the chart itself, but will show up on the DOM that uses the "Copy Chart Drawings From" feature? The horizontal ray, for example, will be visible when I am looking to place it, but once I left click to place it, it will disappear. Volume profile works but others things don't (horizontal line, horizontal ray, extending rectangle). All drawings I place that are not showing up, are listed in the "Manage Chart Drawings" Window. None are hidden. The problem goes away if I destroy the chart and then remake it via Find Symbol, but it's getting annoying that I have to do this every so often (several times a week for multiple different charts). I noticed the issue seems to get worse if I switch back and forth between data feeds (Trading Evaluator and Teton CME Order Routing, for example). Thank you.

Yes, if the drawings for the entire chart were hidden that would happen. Chart Menu: Hide Chart Drawings (Chart menu) When that setting is enabled, they do not show as hidden in the manage chart drawings window (but would still appear on other charts). I noticed the issue seems to get worse if I switch back and forth between data feeds (Trading Evaluator and Teton CME Order Routing, for example).
What is this set to? Chart Settings: Show Chart Drawings For Different Symbols (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Chart Drawings menu) Trade Eval and Teton use different symbols, so it is possible that drawings added when on eval do not show for teton and vice versa. |

Thank you! That was the problem (Chart Menu: Hide Chart Drawings). I don't even know how this got toggled. The Chart Settings: Show Chart Drawings for Different Symbols was enabled for all charts, and wasn't the problem. Everything is fixed and working as it should be. |
