Identify selected drawing object drawn by an indicator

[cre8able]

I have an indicator that draws a number of objects on the chart. There are occasion where I would like to delete one of the object without removing the indicator from the chart.

When I click on an indicator drawn object, it gets "selected". If I double click I can see all the info on the drawing object. I am able to uncheck the visible box and the object disappears so it's no longer visible.

But what I would like to do, is click on an object and remove it so the indicator no longer has to process the object.

Is there a way for the indicator to "read" which draw object is selected? Read the object tag, for example?

If so, I can add a button to my chart to remove the "selected" drawing object

Hello cre8able,

Thank you for your post.

Yes, you could loop through the collection of Drawing Objects and check the drawing state of the object. If the state is DrawingState.Editing, you could call RemoveDrawingObject() on that object.
