I'd like to ask if you would consider adding the ability to label Horizontal Rays and Extending Rectangles.

I use these tools to mark instances on intraday charts, extending them forward. I'd like to be able to label them to know what they represent and where they originated without having to scroll.

Interesting. i did not know that was available on the Rectangles. I looked to the properties of the drawing and thought i'd find it there if it were available.

However, it appears the Modify Text option is not available for H. Rays. On my menu that options is grayed out.

For support for Modify Text for Horizontal Ray, update to the current version.

We are unable to reproduce any scenario in which the Modify Text option is unavailable for a Horizontal Ray drawing. The only thing we can think of is that you are using the standard Ray drawing and placing it horizontally - in which case the Modify Text option is NOT available, as it does not work with the Ray tool.

Again, just be sure you are using the Horizontal Ray tool.
