How to determine user choice of color/width/style as set in "Colors" tab?
I found a nice little *indicator* that allows the user to place horizontal lines on the chart as user-defined intervals (ie a grid type setup). However, the line color and style is hard coded and I want to change that so the use can choose the color, width and style of the lines from the inputs
