Tools for drawing lines

Points.
Snap to nearby prices.
Lines drawn on the upper time axis are also drawn on the lower time axis.
Vertical lines if autoscroll is switched off,
Lines drawn on the upper time axis are also drawn on the lower time axis and simultaneously move the chart to that date and time.
When switching currency pairs, hide lines for all but that currency pair.
This is useful when the price range is the same.

Faults.
Slow.
Diagonal lines do not snap to nearby prices if a holiday falls between them.

Use and check the other functions.

Pls can you allow the Fibonacci Horizontal Line to be extended or enabled?

It's not bad with performance I don't find it slow.. only little lag thats it but for what they do these tools are so good Funchi the free horizontal line without snapping is what I'm using right now from this suite

Hello Mr. Funchi,
Thank you very much for the very light and super-fast indicator. It's really useful for me.

I've been wanting to ask this for a while: why on MetaTrader 5 do these two options (that I marked in the photo) appear as squares and don't display correctly?

I've tested several versions and even clean/raw MetaTrader 5 installations, but the problem still remains.
Thank you!
When your strategy is based on hope, it's a HOPELESS strategy!

Does it display correctly in the chart window? Is the issue limited to the button display only?
To be honest, I do not know how to fix this issue.

In my environment, this kind of display problem sometimes occurs with indicators created by others as well.
I am not sure whether this is an issue with the Windows operating system or with the fonts installed.
