Sample DrawText

[soyjesus]

I'm having problems with DrawText function.

Could anyone show me a sample of DrawText with all its parameters, please?

That is:

DrawText(string tag, bool autoScale, string text, DateTime time, double y, int yPixelOffset, Color textColor, Font font, StringAlignment alignment, Color outlineColor, Color areaColor, int areaOpacity)

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

For a simple example of the usage as above would be this:

DrawText("TagName", true, "Test Text", 0, Close[0], 0, Color.Lime, new Font("Times New Roman", 12), StringAlignment.Center, Color.Red, Color.Gray, 100);

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Thanks, but how can I place the text in the upper right corner, for example?

Hello,

Please see http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...=drawTextFixed

DrawText would be for placement anywhere on the chart, if you just need a corner or center of the screen DrawTextFixed does this automatically for you.

DrawTextFixed("Tag", "Text", TextPosition.TopRight, Color.Red, new Font("Times New Roman", 12), Color.Lime,Color.Gray, 100);

Please let me know if I may be of additional assistance.

That is a different method, called DrawTextFixed().
