Hi Tidypips, thanks for this this drawing utility. I am using a Mac. I don't understand how to activate it. I added the indicator to the chart. Then, I click on Option (equivalent of Alt in Windows) + mouse left, then drag on the screen, the chart moves. No box is drawn. Can you please elaborate on what you mean by Alt + Drag? Better still, a quick video will be super useful.
Hi, thanks for trying out the drawing utility and for explaining your setup.
On Mac, the behaviour is slightly different from Windows. When I mentioned Alt + Drag, I was referring to the activation method on Windows systems. For Mac, the equivalent key does not always trigger the same mouse event because macOS reserves Option + Drag for chart panning in most platforms.
For Mac users, please try the following instead:
- Hold down the Shift key and then left-click + drag on the chart to start drawing the box.
- Alternatively, right-click on the chart and look for the tool name in the drawing menu to activate it manually if your platform supports that method.
I’ll also prepare a short video demonstrating the exact activation process on both Windows and Mac so it’s easier to follow.
Thanks again for the feedback – it really helps improve the tool.

Thanks a lot for the suggestion. Unfortunately, didn't work with Shift + Left Click + drag. When I right click, I don't see the any drawing menu or the Drawing Utility name in the list. Is there a way to invoke the indicator by some other hotkey which will work in Mac?
