I see that this is posted in the old board but cannot post a reply. http://www.sierrachart.com/supportboard/showthread.php?p=236368#post236368 Please bring back this functionality. I am seriously thinking of downgrading only for this. I used the right click (after double-clicking a drawing) to delete a drawing at least 50 times a day and now we need to use the keyboard to delete a drawing or select delete from a menu. See here too: http://www.sierrachart.com/supportboard/showpost.php?p=188344&postcount=8 Thank you. |

When available, ver 993 will have a new option: Tools >> Tool Settings >> Enable Delete Selected Drawing With Right Click When this option is enabled, a right click will delete the currently selected drawing. This will only work with a single selection. With this option enabled, you can still get the drawing context menu by right clicking over a non-selected drawing.

I have installed 993 and chosen the option as you described it above. However, when I select a drawing (by left double clicking on it) and then right-click nothing happens. Is the option live or just appearing in the menu? |

I see what you mean. But please make it work as it used to. I only use Chart calculator (with crosshair always on), never Pointer or Chart values. So, I can only "select" a drawing by double clicking on it. What I used to do was to double-click on a drawing and then delete it with a right click. Please bring this back. Thank you. |

Can you please bring this back, please? I do not understand why it was removed, or why is it so difficult to bring back. I need to double click a drawing and delete it with a right click (I have chart calculator as my default tool). I spend too much of my time right-clicking on drawings just to select Erase. Thank you. |

When you double-click a drawing this invokes a drawing movement operation. When you right-click, it then cancels that operation which restores a drawing back to where it was previously. This will not change. There are other methods to delete a drawing. For example you can press the Delete key. After this left click on a drawing that you want to delete. By doing it this way, it is a very clean way that does not involve a potentially stressful operation with the hand. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

I know of the other ways I can delete a drawing. What I do not understand is why this behavior was changed, is there a technical reason for this? I do not ask for a difficult new feature, just something that existed and worked perfectly. I do not recall that the way it worked cancelled the moving operation (not sure though).
