Make drawing tools clickable anywhere

[kevinenergy]

Hi there,

I want to make a change to the Fibonacci retracement tool so that I can click on it anywhere. By default it only lets me click on the anchor line. But I want to have the anchor line invisible and have the fib tool clickable anywhere like I can do on the trend channel tool or the line tool.
How can I do this?

Hello kevinenergy,

In the GetCursor override you can call GetClosestAnchor() and provide a maxDist value with a large number.

Below is a link to an example drawing tool you may find helpful.
