Hello,

Anyone have code samples of how to get the chart price at a cursor / pointer location (after mouse click) in NT 8?

In other words, the Y axis coordinate?

There was some in NT 7 that worked well, but a different graphics base now in NT 8.

Thanks

protected override void OnRender (ChartControl chartControl, ChartScale chartScale)
{
// call the base.OnRender() to ensure standard Plots work as designed
base.OnRender(chartControl, chartScale);

// my code
double wpfY = chartControl.MouseDownPoint.Y;

double valueByYWpf = chartScale.GetValueByYWpf(wpfY);

valueByYWpf = Instrument.MasterInstrument.RoundToTickSize(valueByYWpf);

Print (valueByYWpf.ToString());


}
