I know if I use the extended rectangle tool or most tools for that matter, I can add text to the tool via Modify Text, but I am curious whether there is a way to attach text to the extended rectangle tool through the properties or another function. So, for example, every time I used the extended rectangle tool, it would be labeled as "support".

You can do this with the Extending Rectangle and with any other tool that has the option for "Copy Tool Config Name to Text" in the Configuration options. You will find the information for this in this section:

Thanks john,

quick question i am looking in studies .cpp, specifically at the SCSFExport scsf_MarketDepthPullingStackingValuesExample(SCStudyInterfaceRef sc), is this the pulling and stacking dom column or is this a different study as I cannot find it in the Studies Available tab on a chart

That study is an example of how to get information from the Pulling/Stacking columns. If you look at the code, you will see that it gives the Pulling/Stacking value at the Best Bid and Best Ask.

Since this is an example file, it is not part of our standard list of studies that are available. But, it is available by selecting "Add Custom Study" on the "Chart Studies" window and then opening the section for "Sierra Chart Custom Studies and Examples". You will find it in that section and can add it to a chart from there.
