Fib-Retr: only anchor line double-clickable

[RonnyKeller]

As it looks, in NT8 only the anchor line of a drawn Fib-Retracements is double-clickable to bring up the properties page. In NT7 at least the horizontal lines at anchor-point levels were double-clickable, too.

If possible, I'd love to see ALL horizontal lines of the Fib-Ret "double-clickable", since I a) default the anchor-line to "transparent" to avoid cluttered charts and b) use the properties-page quite often in order to load different templates for different occasions.
Same situation for Fib-Extension, btw.

Perhaps you could forward this as a feature request to your developers?

I just installed NT8.0.11 and the issue remains still as it was.

Would you please check back with development to implement the behavior at least as it was in NT7 - or if possible, slightly enhanced to have ALL lines of a Fib-drawing "clickable" as asked in the initial post of this thread?

Thanks in advance

A feature request tracking number being provided does not imply that the feature will be included in the next release (although this is possible). If you do not see the tracking number we provided you in the release notes, then the feature request has not yet been implemented.

All feature requests are taken into consideration by the Development Team. They are implemented based on many factors which include user demand and feasibility.

Is there any progress to bring back at least NT7's functionality for this issue?
Current behavior is pretty annoying, I often have to rearrange the price's z-order all the way back in order to select a specific Fib-Ret-drawing with the mouse. A select-able anchor-line is NOT enough, at least NT7s behavior is badly needed...

This is a classic example of what I mentioned in another post about how NT doesn't seem to have their priorities straight in terms of new feature implementation in NT8.

This persons request is something I mentioned during beta and to me it seems reasonable to expect improvements in usability before undertaking something like volume Profile.

There are several examples like this one that should be addressed sooner than later

Hi PatrickH
Is there any answer to MY question in this thread?

Hello RonnyKeller,

Thank you for your response.

There is no solution in this thread. Currently this has been submitted as a feature request to development. I will update this thread should any new information become available.

[RonnyKeller]

@PatrickH: Thanks for your answer. But I have to reply the same answer as in another thread - why does this need a "feature request" in first place? Working functionality from NT7 has been lost (or better: was never transferred to NT8) - so this is nothing but a bug, a developer's error. Can't see why in any software "feature requests" would be needed to bring back formerly fine working logic...
