Hello,
In reading through the Tools documentation, I see that there is a "Hide Level" feature.
I use a lot of drawings on my charts, and I would love to assign all text to a level that can be hidden, as well as all lines to a different level that can be separately hidden.
However, I cannot seem to find where the user assigns individual drawings to a particular level.
Please let me know if I am misunderstanding the purpose of the tool and/or where to apply tools to a given level.
Thank you very much,
Mike T

Hi Miket, I hadn't noticed this feature, thanks for letting me know.
Chart Drawing Tools: Hide Level

That command serves to hide with a click of the mouse, every single level of tools that have multiple graphic elements, for example fibonacci retracement or parrallel rays, obviously does not work on simple trendlines.
It is a shortcut to avoid opening the single instrument panel and enabling / disabling a level with the checkmark.

To get what you requested, a quick way could be to have multiple copies of the same chart and insert the texts on one chart, lines on another and then use this feature.
Copying Chart Drawings from Other Charts Automatically: Copying Chart Drawings from Other Charts and then hide unhide drawing from other charts but it could be cumbersome if you have a lot of drawings
