Open indicator settings when double-click on drawn object

[Marty125]

Indicator draws objects and when I double-click on the drawing, Drawing Objects window opens. Is it possible that Indicator settings window will open instead? Also it is possible to NOT show drawings in Drawing Objects?

Hello Marty125,

Thank you for your post.

Unfortunately no, double-clicking on a drawing object will always bring up that drawing object's properties.

All objects will be listed in the Drawing Objects window if they are attached to the chart where the dialog was opened. There is no way to prevent a drawing object currently on the chart from being displayed there.

The only alternative would be to custom render all your shapes from OnRender() as opposed to using Draw objects. Custom rendered shapes are not included in the drawing objects window.

Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Hi Gaby,

So double-clicking on OnRender() shape will open indicator settings that drew it?

Hello,

No, that suggestion was only in reference to drawing objects being listed on the chart.

Only indicator plots created via AddPlot() will bring up the indicator settings when double-clicked.

Ok, thanks for answering Gaby.
