Moving drawings on linked charts

In the chart settings I have enabled copy chart drawings across a number of linked charts however when I want to move these lines the only way to do it is from the originating chart. The problem is that I can't always remember which chart the line was originally drawn on so have to try clicking on all of them until finding the correct one.

Is there a setting which could enable editing of drawings/lines on all charts regardless of where they were drawn, and if not is it something that could be considered for future developments?

This capability does not exist and we expect will come in the next three or four months.

just another thought on this.. reason i like that this capability does not exist is that it prevents drawings from being selected/modified in error intraday when scrolling charts.. so you can have a master chart where all drawings are managed and have other charts refer/copy it without the risk of them being modified in error on other charts.. yes you can lock them but that becomes cumbersome if you have many drawings.

so having the capability is a great idea and i see some use for it.. as long as its built as a user option

personally i think a lot more thought needs to go into revamping the Manage Chart Drawings Window which is very limiting currently. but +1 for this feature as long as its an option.
