Is it possible when using the rectangle drawing tool to make the rectangles the same size every time with one click instead of comparing the size to my other rectangle drawings? I know it sounds petty, but I use the same size rectangle drawings all day long. Thanks!

There is not a way to do this using the built-in options in Sierra Chart.

You could accomplish this by creating a custom study and capturing your starting point by the study and then drawing the rectangle from that point using your standard size each time. Refer to the information on creating a custom study using ACSIL starting here:
Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language (ACSIL): Introduction

And, just so you are aware, there are options in the Rectangle Configuration to define the Start and End times. Refer to the information here:
Chart Drawing Tools: Rectangle | Extending Rectangle | Ellipse | Triangle Configuration
