Drawing objects stay on chart when changing symbol

I have noticed that any drawing tools I place on a chart stay on the chart when switching symbols. For instance, I if I draw some rectangles and lines on the 6A chart, they are still visible when I switch to the 6C chart or any other chart that has a similar price. This is a problem for me because I use 1 chartbook with 3 charts for about 24 symbols I monitor. When changing between symbols, it becomes hard to differentiate whether the line was drawn on the 6A, 6C, 6N, HO, etc.

Is there any way to have the objects drawn on a chart stay with the symbol and not the chart itself? If not, is this something that could be implemented in a future release? Having 24+ chartbooks with 3 charts each open at the same time eats up a lot of resources and is overkill for swing trading.

Thank You!
