Does any body know how to instantiate a custom drawing tool or if it is even possible ?

So far the only solution i found to draw a custom drawing object was to simulate a hot key pressed using this command:

System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys.SendWait("%3"); // Alt+3

Any help would be appreciated.

You mean from inside ninjascript? There's a whole list of interfaces that allow you to do this from ninjascript.

Here's the full list and references to documentation on how to use each.

Hope this is what you're looking for.
