Selecting a line object with a drawing tool

[blar58]

Hello,

Is it possible to create a drawing that would select a line object on the chart and get access to the line properties ( Width, style ...)


Thank you !

Hello blar58,

Thanks for your post.

Your title says Drawing Tool and the text says drawing so I am a bit confused.

You can create a script that adds, for example, a button on the chart and when clicked you could have the action to scan for a line drawing object and provide its properties.

If that does not answer your question, please elaborate on what you want to do.

Sorry for the confusion :

For example is it possible to loop through line objects ( not drawn by a user ) and get the line drawn at the mousedown point ?

Hello blar58,

Thanks for your reply and clarification.

You can get the time and price of where the mouse click is and then loop through the draw objects collection and see if there is an anchor with that time and price.
