I have a working custom study running which creates drawings in pure ACSIL and is not tagging them as userdrawings so that i dont have to delete evrything manually: s_UseTool Tool;
Tool.Clear(); Tool.ChartNumber = sc.ChartNumber; Tool.DrawingType = DRAWING_RECTANGLEHIGHLIGHT; Tool.LineNumber = LOW_LINENUMBER_BASIS + sc.Index-2; Tool.BeginIndex = sc.Index-2; Tool.BeginValue = sc.BaseData[SC_RENKO_CLOSE][sc.Index-3]; Tool.EndIndex = sc.Index; Tool.EndValue = sc.BaseData[SC_RENKO_OPEN][sc.Index-2]; Tool.Color = LOW_COLOR; Tool.SecondaryColor = LOW_COLOR; Tool.TransparencyLevel = TRANSPARENCY_LEVEL; Tool.LineWidth = RECTANGLES_LINE_WIDTH; sc.UseTool(Tool); The drawings are done/performed on renko bars, but it seems that i cannot transport/overlay these drawings onto lets say a 1 Minute timeframe chart. Is there any solution to this? I tried useing the Study/Price overlay study but it does not seem to work. Suggestions? |

You can do this by setting Tool.AddAsUserDrawnDrawing = 1. And then specify the Tool.ChartNumber to output the drawings to. Refer to: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_DLLTools.html To delete a drawing programmatically use: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_DLLTools.html#scDeleteUserDrawnACSDrawing Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Quick followup: If i set the Chartnumber to output the drawings to to a different chart, will the original chart where the study is run also have the drawings? Example: The rectangles are currently drawn into chartnumber 3 where my renko bars are displayed, assuming i want a copy of this onto chart number 1 where a 1 minute timeframe is running and i adjust the code to include the AddAsUserDrawnDrawing and set the chartnumber output to 1... will chart number 3 also have the rectangles or will ONLY chart number 1 where the output has been selected to have the drawings? |

The drawings will be added only to the chart specified by Tool.ChartNumber. So you need to add the drawing to each chart. And delete it from each chart.

Ah this clarifies it, time to rewrite the code then i guess =/ Is drawing to multiple chart numbers supported? I.e Specifying: Tool.ChartNumber = 1, 2 in order to draw it to chartnumber 1 and 2 ? |

No. You have to make 2 separate sc.UseTool calls.
