Automatically Get a Line Drawn Between The Pivot Points?

Sometimes there's too much space between the daily pivots points even though I have selected all of the pivot points to appear on my chart. Is there an indicator that will automatically draw a line between the pivots (R1, R1.5, R2, R2.5, S1, S1.5, S2, S2.5 ...)? This way I don't have manually place a line between the pivot points. Thanks.

If you are referring to the transition from one day to the next where the Pivot Points are separated and you want to see a connecting line between them instead, then change the "Draw Style" to "Line" for each level. Refer to the following:
Chart Studies: Line (ACSIL: DRAWSTYLE_LINE)

If this is something else then we need more information.

It seems there might have been some misunderstanding of my question, or perhaps I didn't explain it clearly. I use daily Pivot Points for intraday trading on a 1-minute chart. I've observed that the price doesn't always reach the next pivot point. When the market is moving slowly, I draw a horizontal line between the pivot points to identify a more achievable target. For example, if the price is at S1, I draw a horizontal line between S1 and S1.5 to narrow the gap between these two pivot points. Is there a tool that can automatically draw lines between all of the pivot points for each day?

There is not a tool that will do this directly for all the Pivot Points.

The easiest way to get a single line between any two pivot points is to use the "Study Subgraphs Average" study. Refer to the following:
Study Subgraphs Average

If you do not have a lot of other studies on the chart, then using multiple copies of this might be the best option. Just be sure to save them, along with the Pivot Points study as a Study Collection, so you can easily add it to another chart. Refer to the following:
Study Collections

But, you might prefer to use the Spreadsheet Study to do this, as you can use the multiple columns to get the average point between the two subgraphs. Refer to the following:
