Attention!

My indicators draw quite a few objects on charts. When I use mouse to move charts to the left or to the right, it is very likely the mosue is clicked on such an object and the object (line or text) gets moved instead of the chart being crolled. Only the later action is what I intend to do. When the objects get moved, I have to press "F5" to reload the indicators which is annoying. So is there a flag to mark those objects drawn on charts unmovable?

In eSignal, the lines can be drawn by two sets of APIs: drawLine() and drawLineTool(). Only the lines drawn by the later can be selected and moved.

Unfortunately not. We have this on our list for NT7 considerations yet. Thanks for your suggestion though.
