Remove drawings when rolling forward contract

I just rolled over my contract today, and for my time-based candlestick charts, all drawings (lines, fibonacci lines, etc) are erased, but the tick and footprint charts (which are set to copy any drawings from my time-based charts), are keeping all the prior-contract drawings.

1) is there a way to keep drawings on the time-based charts when rolling over?

2) if not, how do I erase all existing drawings on the tick and footprint charts? I tried "erase all non-text ..." but that doesn't do anything.

Thanks,

Elie

Do you back adjust?

If you do, the lines likely aren't erased, they're just back at their original prices prior to the adjustment.

What cmet states is true.

But, the drawings are also probably associated with the previous contract, so they would not be displayed. When you rollover, there is an option for "Also Rollover Chart Drawing Symbols" - make sure this is enabled next time.

In the meantime, with the particular chart active select "Chart >> Update Chart Drawings to Current Symbol".
