Make indicator drawn object, like it was drawn by the user

[BearingHH]

Hi, okay "unsupported" you will say, but for my trading work, analyzing and keeping it simple, it will be mandatory to get the indicator drawn object into the chart as they were drawn by the user. And I have no time to implement a separate database for the indicator for all instruments and draw them over and over again. And also want them to be changeable and then I have to keep the changes dynamically in my database and so on. This will blow up the time and code size with factor 20.

I only want to export horizontal lines from one chart and import them in some other - and "All Charts" is not a solution :-)

Any hint?

Hello BearingHH,

Thank you for your post.

I could only think of running through the collection of drawn objects and writing their information to an external file that would be read by the indicator when applied to the new chart.

For information on the drawing objects collection please visit the following link: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...drawobject.htm

At least, I saved the drawing objects in files with JSON-Layout and implemented im- and export
