Hi,

I am trying to draw lines & text objects on both the indicator and the price panel. It should be possible in NT7

Anybody knows how this works? Till recently one could dynamically toggle the DrawOnPricePanel that seems not to work any more in NT7B18.

I would like to draw both lines and Text A,B,C on both panels
Here's a picture what I am trying to do (manual created):


I can either do the price panel with DrawOnPricePanel = true or I can do the indicator pannel with DrawOnPricePanel = false. I'm looking for a way to do both.

Many thanks in advance,

Wessel

Looks like we're hooked to using two indicators for this one job :-( I've also posted it on the NT forum but it looks like we're stucked

Yup.

Sadly that's the news I heard too on my side.

Hmmm, I hope that is a bug they are going to fix. It works fine in B17. If they take that away, it would be a major step backwards.

As mentioned in first post, you should be able to dynamically toggle DrawOnPricePanel in between each draw operation. So you should be able to draw a line with DrawOnPricePanel=true, then set DrawOnPricePanel=false and draw another line on the indicator panel.

Have you posted in the Ninja forums? I stopped reading over there, but they should know about this and be working on a fix IMO. There are a large number of indicators that depend on this technique.
