hi, would be nice to have an api that can access the tool config data that a user has specified. Something like sc.GetToolConfig(DRAWING_TEXT, "TC1", config) - returns a struct with the configuration values in config or sc.PopulateTool(tool, "TC1") - receives tool structure that specifies the drawing type and the method populates it for me both options would be fine. This is needed so that with acsil studies, we don't need to provide input for tool configurations some of which can be quite lengthy. |

Hello, Something like this is already supported. You can specify an existing drawing tool configuration when adding a drawing through ACSIL: // example using a tool config to set drawing properties
Tool.Clear(); // reset tool structure for our next use Tool.ChartNumber = sc.ChartNumber; Tool.DrawingType = DRAWING_HORIZONTALLINE; Tool.LineNumber = UniqueLineNumber +23; // Set BarIndex to 20 bars from the end BarIndex = sc.ArraySize - 20; BarIndex = max(BarIndex,0); Tool.BeginValue = sc.Close[BarIndex]; Tool.Region = 0; Tool.UseToolCfgNum = 1; // must be 1-8 Tool.AddMethod = UTAM_ADD_OR_ADJUST; sc.UseTool(Tool); // Here we make the function call to add the line There are no plans to add anything new or different.
