Can't copy chart drawings from a different chartbook

Not sure what's going on here, I think I've explored every option and have also reviewed the relevant documentation, but this just won't work.

I have two chartbooks, one called "RTY" and one called "Major Indices". In the RTY chartbook are 4 charts of RTY in different timeframes. Chart #1 is a 1hr chart.

In the Major Indices chartbook is 4 charts of my 4 main markets (RTY, ES, NQ, YM) all linked to a single timeframe.

In the RTY chart in the Major Indices chartbook, I have set Copy Chart Drawings From Chart #'s to "RTY:1" (no quotes of course).

In my RTY chartbook, chart #1 is the chart that contains the drawings I wish to appear on the Major Indices chartbook chart of RTY. But those drawings simply will not appear on the Major Indices RTY chart. I have played with many different timeframes and also with them matching (both at 1hr chart), but nothing changes and the drawings simply will not appear.

I'm out of ideas on what to look for. Any suggestions?

OK I figured it out. The drawings in question were actually being drawn on RTY chart #1, by being copied from another chart in that chartbook. I didn't realize that they wouldn't then additionally "transmit" to another chartbook from there.
