You simply need to let Sierra recognise that the [enter] key is the same as a 'click' after 'Tools >> Erase Drawing Mode' has been enabled.
This is not making any sense to us, or anyone else. Refer to the documentation we previously linked to about deleting chart drawings.


Simply make the Tools >> Erase Last Drawing work on both a source chart AND a destination chart.
This command can only work on chart drawings drawn on the particular chart you are using it from. It is not technically possible otherwise because the last drawing is always considered the drawing drawn on the chart itself.


This makes NO sense that a trader should scroll to the source chart in order to delete an object which has functionality to duplicate to other charts. What is the meaning of this? The object is the object and has equal priority across the charts it is linked to. The user should have freedom to delete where he pleases just as he can create where he pleases.. it is counter-intuitive and dysfunctional to then try and recollect which one is the master chart. Tradestation and many other platforms don't have this limitation so why do we?
This also makes no sense whatsoever.

Sierra Chart does support this functionality. Anyone can see that. It is incredibly obvious. None of our other users have any problem. Refer to:
