I've wondered about this myself. There are other tools where a toggle would be useful, such as the marker tool (changing the marker type after price has reacted to the marker location). Sometimes we want to leave the objects in place and then simply change properties quickly. What might be nice is to be able to put the drawing properties on the chart like we have the order window on the chart (docked and always visible with all the settings). That way, as we click on drawing objects, the properties for that drawing object become available instantly and can be quickly modified for the situation. I don't like blocking dialog boxes in general. Better to take a visual-studio style approach and make everything floating/dockable. As for having a keyboard shortcut as ycomp mentions, that might be interesting. Or perhaps a more visual/discoverable way would be to use a context menu like we see in Microsoft Word/Excel when formatting text - a little toolbar fades into the foreground and lets you modify the most common properties instantly. Given that we want to keep the platform fast, I think a docked properties window might be best for everybody (learners and experienced both). Not sure what Sierra Engineering thinks. They are the ones that matter. Whatever is easiest. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2022-03-27 17:49:52
