How to set AutoScale False in this indicator

[contrax]

Hello, im trying to set the "BOX" in to "AUTOSCALE: FALSE"

Already add the line 106 IsAutoScale = false;


The indicator says there is not AutoScale

But the draw objects (box) always set the autoscale On.


Anyone can help me with this? Thank you!

Hello contrax,

On line 106 in the file you have provided is a blank line.
This blank line is below the line:
IsOverlay = true;

Have you provided the wrong file?

Is there a different file where you have set IsAutoScale to false in State.SetDefaults?

Are you certain you have compiled the script after making the changes?

Did you add a new instance of the script for the defaults to be pulled?

Oh sorry, i edited by myself but didnt save as a .rar file.

The only difference between the one i edit and that one is in 106 i add:

*************

Description = NinjaTrader.Custom.Resource.NinjaScriptIndicatorDe scriptionADL;
Name = "CongestionBoxBC";
IsSuspendedWhileInactive = true;
IsOverlay = true;
IsAutoScale = false; (this is line 106)
(this is line 107)
HighofThree = 0;
LowofThree = 0;
firstbar = 0;
lastbar = 0;
totalbars = 0;
trade= 0;


**********************************

The file that i upload is the "original" one... I only want the AUTOSCALE set to False for everything.

Thank you ChelseaB for your reply.

Hello contrax,

I was not able to confirm, are you certain you have compiled the script after making the changes?

Did you add a new instance of the script for the defaults to be pulled?

Also, is there any template saved for this script?

[contrax]

I didnt know how to add in a .rar file but i copy it from the Ninjatrader Documents Folder.


Anyway the only difference between the original that i uploaded in the first post, and this one is the only AUTOSCALE thing. (i upload a photo with a yellow arrow).

I want to put everything of that indicator AUTOSCALE: FALSE, everything.

In fact if exist something that i can set in tools or ninjatrader settings all the indicators autoscale false that works too.


Thank you.

Edit: Yes, always that i try to change something i Compile it correctly (the sound hear), and then F5 for refresh the chart and thats it... But with this Indicator i cant, the Boxes that draw still with AutoScale True.

Hello contrax,

Defaults are not pulled when you hit F5 to refresh a script.

Defaults are only pulled when creating a new instance of the script on the chart.

Did you add a new instance of the script for the defaults to be pulled?

Also, is there any template saved for this script?

What already i did it:

1) Hit F5
2) Remove the Indicator and add in again.
3) Open a new chart and only add the indicator (by default after compile it, is already autoscale off.. but the object draw bow still autoscale true)

There is not any template save of the indicator... (i mean i have a template save for the colours.. but i press "restore" and thats it.. the indicator shows autoscale off but the boxes still autoscale on)

I only need the BOX (Rectangle Object) to be autoscale false.

Hello contrax,

The autoscale of drawing objects are separate from the indicator.

The drawing objects require their own isAutoScale parameter in the method overloads.

However, you already have this set to true.

Draw.Rectangle(this,"Box2"+CurrentBar,true, totalbars+1, Upperboundary,1,Lowerboundary, Brushes.Transparent, demandColor, Opacity2);

Are you finding that when the chart is in auto scale mode that the rectangles are appearing outside of the rendered chart area?

Exactly "The drawing objects require their own isAutoScale parameter in the method overloads."

I was thinking about it, and looking in the editor where i can change that.


Im going to upload 2 pictures, with the Autoscale: True.

And if i manually take it off, (Autoscale: False)


I was trying to find where it can show better the difference between TRUE and False... But when the Rectangle is at the top and the price is very at the bottom.. the Candles are very small because the Rectangle autoscale is true... I want everything AutoScale: False.



Edit: Those picture doesnt show what i mean... but i think u understand me.

Hello contrax,

Currently, you are supplying true as the isAutoScale parameter to the drawing object.

To confirm, you want this to be false?

In this case supply a false as the isAutoScale parameter to the drawing object.

[contrax]

This is other example about True and False "AutoScale"

I want to be "FALSE" in everything related of AutoScale. Because for me the more important thing is the Candlestick and not the indicators.

Sometimes are examples where the candles are very small because the Rectangle are at the very top or at the very bottom and because the problem of "AutoScale" the Chart adjust for the Rectangle causing the candlestick very small...

In a Few Words:

Objects: AutoScale False
Indicators: AutoScale False
Rectangle: Autoscale False
Box: Autoscale False

(Sorry for my english and thank you for having time to help me.)

Hello contrax,

If you always want autoscale to be false, then always use a false when using an overload that includes the isAutoScale parameter.

The indicator plots are controlled by the indicator's IsAutoScale setting.

Drawing objects have their own isAutoScale.

Be sure in your code they are both set to false.

Im not a Programmer and that Indicator it wasnt created by me.

If you can help me in what line should i add the parameter or let me contact the creator of the indicator if He can help me modify it.

But if u can help me (in case that is easy) i appreciate it. Thank you!

Hello contrax,

Change the isAutoScale bool from true to false.

Draw.Rectangle(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, int startBarsAgo, double startY, int endBarsAgo, double endY, Brush brush, Brush areaBrush, intareaOpacity)

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/en-us/draw_rectangle.htm

Draw.Rectangle(this,"Box2"+CurrentBar,true, totalbars+1, Upperboundary,1,Lowerboundary, Brushes.Transparent, demandColor, Opacity2);
