I wanted to reach out to ask whether there is currently a way to group chart drawings into named groups or folders — and if not, to submit this as a feature request. Specifically, what I'm looking for is the ability to organize drawings such as trendlines, support/resistance levels, Fibonacci retracements, and other annotations into separate named groups, and then toggle each group on or off with a single click. The idea is to keep the chart clean and focused — for example, showing only S/R levels during a setup, then switching to only trendlines during trend analysis, without having to manually hide or delete individual drawings each time. TradingView has a feature that does this well — drawings can be organized into folders in the Objects Tree panel on the right side of the chart. Each folder can be toggled visible or hidden with a single click, which makes it very easy to manage a busy chart and focus on only the drawings relevant to a particular analysis workflow. I currently use Sierra Chart Package 11 with the Denali data feed for futures trading and draw quite a few levels and lines on my charts. Right now the closest option I've found is using Chart >> Hide Chart Drawings to hide everything at once, or placing drawings on separate charts and using the Copy Chart Drawings feature — but neither gives the selective per-group control I'm looking for. Is there a way to do this that I may have missed? And if not, I'd love to see this added as a native feature in a future update. Thank you for your time and for building such a powerful platform. Best regards |

There is not a way to group drawings together as you are asking. We have noted this as a Feature Request. We can not say when we would get to any particular request. -- We do want to point out one option available for you, which would be to use the "Tools >> Manage Chart Drawings Window" where you can use the "Drawing Type" option at the top to select a specific drawing type to display in the window, and then use "Options >> Select All" to select all of that type of drawing, and then select the "Hide" (or "Show") button at the bottom. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
