Chart Drawing Data Export

How can User-Draw Chart Drawings be exported to a Data CSV file, similar to how Bar Data is extracted?

If a script needs to be programmed, which function would I need to use?

For example, if I have 50 rectangles drawn on a chart, and I execute script, then all of the anchor points of each rectangle get pasted to a script. This is what I am trying to achieve and I can only find information on the code itself drawing onto the chart, not vice versa.

Chart Drawings obviously get stored when a Chartbook is saved, so that is a point to consider maybe. How is the data saved and where?

Excuse my inexperience on this. Many thanks.

You will need to use ACSIL and use this particular function to access the Chart Drawing data:
Using Drawing Tools From an Advanced Custom Study: sc.GetUserDrawnChartDrawing()
