hiding trendline

[oortcloud]

One feature I really miss from my previous charting software package was the ability to automatically show or hide a trendline depending on the timeframe I was viewing.

Currently in esignal if I draw a trendline on the 60 minute chart then switch to the daily chart, the trendline looks really odd. What would be nice is the ability to assign a time frame (or time frame range) to a trendline, so that it shows or hides automatically when you change timeframes.

I know I can't be the only person to think about this. (I did a forum search and didnt find much.) Does anyone have a tip or solution to work around this?

Best,
Mark

I was able to solve this by creating an EFS script that handles mouse clicks to draw trendlines. I then only display the trendline when I'm on that timeframe (or a close timeframe). It seems to work quite well and gets me about 90-95% of what I need.

I would still like to see it natively in esignal but the EFS will work for the time being.
