Parameters

owner

The hosting NinjaScript object which is calling the draw method

 

Typically will be the object which is calling the draw method (e.g., "this")

tag

A user defined unique id used to reference the draw object.

 

For example, if you pass in a value of "myTag", each time this tag is used, the same draw object is modified. If unique tags are used each time, a new draw object will be created each time.

isAutoScale

Determines if the draw object will be included in the y-axis scale. Default value is false.

startBarsAgo

The starting bar (x axis co-ordinate) where the draw object will be drawn. For example, a value of 10 would paint the draw object 10 bars back

startTime

The starting time where the draw object will be drawn

startY

The starting y value co-ordinate where the draw object will be drawn

endBarsAgo

The end bar (x axis co-ordinate) where the draw object will terminate

endTime

The end time where the draw object will terminate

endY

The end y value co-ordinate where the draw object will terminate

brush

The brush used to color the outline of draw object (reference)

areaBrush

The brush used to color the fill area of the draw object (reference)

areaOpacity

Sets the level of transparency for the fill color. Valid values between 0 - 100. (0 = completely transparent, 100 = no opacity)

drawOnPricePanel

Determines if the draw-object should be on the price panel or a separate panel

isGlobalDrawingTool

Determines if the draw object will be global across all charts which match the instrument

templateName

The name of the drawing tool template the object will use to determine various visual properties (empty string could be used to just use the UI default visuals instead)

 

 

Examples

ns

// Paints a red ellipse on the current bar
Draw.Ellipse(this, "tag1", true, 5, Close[5], 0, Close[0], Brushes.Red, Brushes.Red, 5);
