Share a drawing tool across charts

I have an ACSIL study that produces a tool drawing on chart #1 at times. I'd like to replicate that drawing to chart #2. Quite possibly I missed something but it appears that the only way I can do that is to have a study running on chart #2 receiving the tool parameters from the study on chart #1. Am I correct in that? Overlaying the study from chart #1 to chart #2 and specifying Tool.ChartNumber = 2 in the study running on chart #1 doesn't seem to produce the drawing on chart #2, I thought that worth a try at least. Passing the parameters from one study to another seemingly can be done by writing a text file or sharing a SCSubgraphRef? It really would be super nice if a variable could be shared between studies directly but from what I read that complicates things.. |

Tool.ChartNumber = 2 This does work. We tested it. This is how you should do it.Persistent Variables are shareable across charts.: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_ACSIL_Members.html#scGetStudyPersistentVariablesFromChartUsingID Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Thinking about this some more, putting a custom study drawing on one chart from another chart by using Tool.ChartNumber no longer is going to work properly and we have not considered this scenario with changes over the last couple of years. So we really do have to remove support for that.

It is still supported for a study to put a chart drawing on a chart other than its own if it sets s_UseTool::AddAsUserDrawnDrawing to a nonzero number. Refer to the documentation for this member.

The following code won't compile: [The ACS source folder is not in the typical location, doubt that is a problem] Tool.Clear(); // reset tool structure for our next use Tool.ChartNumber = 3; Tool.DrawingType = DRAWING_LINE; Tool.LineNumber = UniqueLineNumber +16; int BarIndex = max(0, sc.ArraySize - 90); Tool.BeginDateTime = sc.BaseDateTimeIn[sc.Index -111]; Tool.BeginValue = sc.Open[BarIndex]; BarIndex = max(0, sc.ArraySize - 60); Tool.EndDateTime = sc.BaseDateTimeIn[sc.Index]; Tool.EndValue = sc.Open[BarIndex]; Tool.Color = RGB(0,128,0); Tool.AddMethod = UTAM_ADD_OR_ADJUST; s_UseTool::AddAsUserDrawnDrawing = 1; sc.UseTool(Tool); Build Output: -- Starting build of Custom Studies Source File: ASystem.cpp. -- 15:25:23 "C:\SierraChart\CPPCompiler\bin\g++.exe" "C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\ASystem.cpp" -march=i686 -mtune=i686 -O2 -shared -static -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ -s -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -o "C:\Barchart\Data\ASystem.dll" In file included from C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\ASystem.cpp:2:0: C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\sierrachart.h: In function 'void scsf_ASystem(SCStudyInterfaceRef)': C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\sierrachart.h:960:7: error: invalid use of non-static data member 's_UseTool::AddAsUserDrawnDrawing' C:\SierraChart\ACS_Source\ASystem.cpp:314:18: error: from this location -- End of Build -- 15:25:23 Date Time Of Last Edit: 2013-06-28 22:30:04

OK, I can put a tool drawing on another chart but I can't assign a unique line number to it. I can get just one drawing on a chart iow, because the recipient chart is assigning the line number?

If you are setting: Tool.AddMethod = UTAM_ADD_OR_ADJUST; then you will only be able to add one line if you are using the same LineNumber.
