Request Subgraph or Background Blink Option, like Horizontal Line alert blink

Even automated trading can require visual oversight. With complex chartbooks with many studies (in my case many overlapped so left side is not visible), a study alert condition is not very evident for the study name to turn red, (because a steady red is a common color among many studies and charts). You suggest coding & testing alerts via colored background, and that is good. but adds to studies. Ideally a study option would draw a box or circle on the study at the point of condition (crossover,level etc), with option to Blink, like Tools-Horizontal Line has that option right on it. Alternatively, add a blink option to colored background, for exceptional conditions. -- to give a priority-level recognition ability. Better would two alert formula areas in a study or background, the second alert allowing a -same (as color background or study alert) or -different condition for a blink. Maybe we could add different Colored Backgrounds, one per condition with blink option for background blink <-- probably the simplest solution.
