Dear Programming.

The toolbar additions Al put together many moons ago reference the same Custom Text Drawings which means that when more than one toolbar is now customized the 150 limit goes quite quickly.
Is there any possibility you could increase the number available?
20 would solve my specific issue enabling me to use chart background black which requires white as opposed to black text however some headroom (50) would be even better - assuming that is it will not cause any issues.

What started out as simply Toolbar8 has been a fantastic addition to the SC toolbox.

Many thanks

PS always happy to contribute to programming costs if helps speed this up.

Sorry I think I confused things.

At the moment there is the possibility of adding/defining 150 Custom Text Drawing | CTD (under Available Control Bar Commands: Tools - Custom Text Drawing). You are quite right each CTD is the button.

When switching chart backgrounds to say black as opposed to white it is best to use a different toolbar as any black text defined in the toolbar would now need to instead be set to white or a colour other than black which means you can very quickly reach the 150 limit.

Again I am happy to contribute to the programming costs for making these changes.

Many thanks.

PS when using Chart >> Show Rollover Dates; the Swing Marker and Date Marker either overwrite or are displayed on top of the Rollover Dates.
