Hi support,

Coming from another charting platform, I was able to add mid lines for the drawing tools.

So I was wondering if SC could do the same?

For example, is it possible to add a mid line for the parallel lines tool, or the rectangle tool?

Thanks!

Depending on the particular tool, there are such options available. For example, for the Parallel Lines tool, you would simply add a level with a value of 50.

For the rectangle, however, there is no direct way to do this, you would have to draw a manual line for that particular drawing.

Any tool that allows the entry of a Level will work like the Parallel Lines tool.

The documentation for the options on the Parallel Lines can be found here:
Chart Drawing Tools: Parallel Lines Configuration

The documentation for Drawing Properties can be found here:

then use the parallel lines tool with value of 50 to add the midline for the rectangle

thanks!
