I use daily bars and try to figure out how to get an alert on a drawing only once when i update the chart in case the price touches, crosses or jumps above a line that i have drawn.

I use "entire bar" "crossing": but I get everytime an alert I open the symbol in the chart or change the timeframe, even though I have activated "alert once per bar".

I read through all the documentation of that alerts, but still don t understand how to get this alert only once when i update the chart.

Does "crossing" include cases when the price actually jumps and my drawing is not touched at all?

If there is a reload of the chart, there will be a new alert.

Yes.
