One of two things is happening. Either you did not follow the instructions for how to get the drawings to appear on the new chart, or the drawings are offset far enough from the current price that you cannot see them.

First, refer to the following again to ensure that you have used one of the options to be able to see the drawings on the chart:
Changing to a New Futures Contract Month: Allowing Lines and Other Chart Drawings From Other Contract Months to Appear on the Current Contract

Second, make sure that the anchor levels for the drawings are within a reasonable price level so that you should be seeing the drawings on the chart. You can view the drawings from the Manage Chart Drawings window. Refer to the following:

Have you selected either Chart >> Update Chart Drawings to Current Symbol or Chart >> Chart Settings >> Advanced Settings >> Show Chart Drawing For Different Symbols?

One of these needs to be done in order to get the drawings to show on the new contract symbol.
