Do you want to pay for this? We are not going to do this without payment. We can do this for 150 to 200 USD. Also do not respond with any complaint in regards to payment. This is a completely reasonable request to ask for additional payment if you want it. Especially being you are not even a direct paid customer.

Okay wow. We will work on this for you. And let you know the final cost. Hopefully less but not more.

Another question we have is when you duplicate a Chart Drawing on the Manage Chart Drawings window, do you want the Chart Drawing Properties window to automatically open at that time so you can edit it?

Yes, thanks. Provided that the duplicated Chart Drawing is an exact copy, generated with a new and unique Line ID, and highlighted on the Manage Chart Drawings window. When the user closes the automatically opened Chart Drawing Properties window, the new Chart Drawing should remain highlighted on the Manage Chart Drawings window, allowing the user to Hide/Show, Lock/Unlock, Delete, Alert, and Adjust the new Chart Drawing without clicking on it again. (A corresponding menu item for the Chart Drawing Menu tree called Duplicate and Edit Drawing shouid also be available for user interaction, replicating the same action as the Duplicate button, by creating a duplicated Chart Drawing with an underlying new and unique Line ID, while automatically opening only the Chart Drawing Properties window for editing).

Thank you for adding the Duplicate button to the MCD window in v1852. Could you advise when it will be active for use, as discussed above?

This is not yet done. We will do our best to get this done by Monday. The menu command is not difficult but implementing Duplicate on the Manage Chart Drawings window/interface is more involved.

Just updated to v1854. I can confirm that the menu command for Duplicate and Edit Drawing is now active, and working as envisioned. In fact, as currently implemented, it largely obviates the need for a stand-alone Duplicate button on the MCD window, given the apparent complexity of doing so. If a working Duplicate button is not feasible, a menu item for the Manage Chart Drawings window could be added to the available selections for the Chart Drawing Menu tree instead. This would allow the user to easily select the MCD from the Chart Drawing Menu to cleanup or otherwise address any extra Chart Drawings as needed. |

Actually the work on this is mostly done, but not yet released. We need to reimplement the list window on the Manage Chart Drawings window. The one there is terribly inefficient. It is a Microsoft implementation. The new one we are working on is a lightning fast virtual list which is our own. So the remaining details like adding and highlighting the new drawing in the list will come probably in another week or so.

Duplicate drawings is now supported in the Manage Chart Drawings window and prerelease 1855 is now out. The Manage Chart Drawings window has been significantly reimplemented. It uses a drastically higher performance list view. Additionally it is a modeless dialog now which means that you can interact with the chart while it is open and drawings you add or modify or delete on the chart are now immediately reflected in that window. Although this last part needs a little more work. It is not fully implemented yet. Let us know if there any issues. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Your implementation of the new Manage Chart Drawing window list view is a welcome upgrade. The Duplicate button (and the corresponding menu item, Duplicate and Edit Drawing) work as envisioned. Additionally it is a modeless dialog now which means that you can interact with the chart while it is open and drawings you add or modify or delete on the chart are now immediately reflected in that window.
Should an item be erroneously deleted from the list view, using the DELETE button on the Manage Chart Drawings window, how can it be restored it to the list (and presumably the chart) directly from that window? Although this last part needs a little more work. It is not fully implemented yet.
I was able to open MULTIPLE dialog windows for the MCD, which I couldn't figure out how to close. Clicking the CLOSE button (or the "X") proved unfruitful here. Please advise. |

Some other related issues have also been fixed. We will have a new release out in about 20 minutes. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Looks great here. Thank you for your exemplary work on this, SC. Let us know if there any issues.
It appears the Manage Chart Drawings window does not automatically change its active Symbol when the underlying chart has changed active focus to a different Symbol. Is there any way to address this, so users don't mistakenly update Chart Drawings for the wrong Symbol? (it's almost a given during fast market conditions that this could occur as a result). |

We will take care of this.

Thank you for partially addressing this in v1856, as it applies only if the underlying chart # remains the same. We will take care of this.
If a user changes active focus to ANOTHER chart # while the Manage Chart Drawings window is open, it is still possible to mistakenly update Chart Drawings for the wrong Symbol or chart. Please advise. |

Please advise. This is just how it works and cannot change. It applies to the chart that it was opened for.

Since the Manage Chart Drawings window is "modeless", your team doesn't see the possibility for confusion and error here by users? Especially users who have several charts and/or chartbooks open at the same time? Anyway, thank you again for the otherwise exemplary work in completing most of this task for me. Time & money well spent, all things considered. |

We will see what is reasonable to do in the short term. This may or may not be easy to resolve. But likely it would involve destroying the window and re-creating it every time you change the focus of a chart.
