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.

barsAgo

The bar the object will be drawn at. A value of 10 would be 10 bars ago.

time

The time the object will be drawn at.

brush

The brush used to color draw object (reference)

dashStyle

DashStyleHelper.Dash
DashStyleHelper.DashDot
DashStyleHelper.DashDotDot
DashStyleHelper.Dot
DashStyleHelper.Solid

 

Note: Fancier DashStyles like DashDotDot will require more resources than simple DashStyles like Solid.

width

The width of the draw object

drawOnPricePanel

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

isGlobal

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)
