for cut and paste coders like me, the use of certain graphics functions (in C# not just NinjaScript) is like a "quantum leap" past where my current level of understanding is...

Here's a snippet start from the Murrey Math file (starting at around line #600 and goes on for approx. 100 lines) I'd like to place into a two or three line plotting indicator so I can learn how to use this advanced code.

 
Code
publicoverridevoid Plot(Graphics graphics, Rectangle bounds, double min, double max)
{
if (Bars == null || ChartControl == null)
return;
int barWidth = ChartControl.ChartStyle.GetBarPaintWidth(ChartControl.BarWidth);
for (int seriesCount = 0; seriesCount < Values.Length; seriesCount++)
{
SolidBrush brush = brushes[seriesCount];
 
...
...
...
 
Does anyone have a simplified template that you'd be willing to share? or a link on a C# tutorial that helps?
Thanks,
Kirk

Not the most simple example, but MSDN:
SolidBrush Class (System.Drawing)
Graphics.DrawString Method (System.Drawing)
